@entity6 is the most common @entity209 in @entity1 . One of the major complications of the disease is foot ulcer that is prone to @entity281 . The most common causes of @entity281 which have been reported in these @entity1 are bacteria and fungi such as Candida, Aspergillus, and Rhizopus species. We report one such rare case with @entity4034 caused by Aspergillus ochraceus in a @entity1 with @entity6 . The case was a 68-year-old male with a history of @entity2175 for 2 years. The @entity1 had two @entity1066 on the right heel bones for the past 6 months with no significant improvement. One of the most important predisposing factors to @entity166 , especially opportunistic @entity364 , is @entity6 . Aspergillus species can involve bony tissue through vascular system, direct @entity281 , and @entity130 . Proper and early diagnosis and treatment of @entity6 can reduce or prevent complications, such as @entity4034 and amputation. The annual examination of feet for skin and nail lesion, sensation, anatomical changes, and vascular circulation can be useful for prevention and control of @entity281 .
