Abstract

The Korean Diabetes Association (KDA) published the 3rd edition of the diabetic neuropathy management guidebook in 2010. This publication has been recognized as the definitive guide for the clinical management of diabetic neuropathy in the Korean medical system. In this report, we provide a modified summary of the 3rd edition of the diabetic neuropathy management guidebook. We hope this summary will serve as a helpful reference in the daily clinical practice of diabetes care.
