Is Skin Tag Associated with Diabetic Macro and Microangiopathy?
CONCLUSION: We conclude that presence of skin tag is merely related to obesity and may not be strongly associated with macro- and microangiopathy in type 2 diabetic individuals. Further studies with large patient population are required to elucidate the association between the presence of skin tag and diabetic angiopathy.
