Hundred-year experience with insulin and lipohypertrophy: An unresolved issue.

In the article recently published in Diab Res Clin Pract (1), we described one of the most exciting paths in the history of medicine from the perspective of diabetologists and people with type 1 diabetes. Such a history lasted 100 years, from the discovery of insulin to the most technologically advanced technologies aimed at making treatment as close to physiology and user-friendly as possible. Indeed, we are luckier than others because, by living in Italy and the USA, respectively, we have access to miniaturized and computerized insulin delivery systems, but this is not the case worldwide. Due to that, while receiving many favorable comments from colleagues and friends, we were encouraged to further expand on the issue and go deeper into insulin injection technique.
