Introduction: Diabetic muscle infarction (DMI) is a rare complication of long-standing, poorly controlled diabetes, and it’s more common in patients with micro-vascular complications. Herein, we present a case of DMI occurring in patient on hemodialysis.Case presentation: A 44-year-old man on maintenance hemodialysis presented with an acutely painful and swelling in his left calf. He had a 21-year history of poorly controlled type one diabetes, with...
