Diabetic foot is one of the leading complications of diabetes mellitus that affects millions of people around the world and involves the presence of ulcers, infections, tissue destruction, and loss of sensation and can even lead to limb amputation. This research explores trends in diabetic foot global research through a bibliometric analysis of publications indexed in Scopus in the period 2004–2023. A total of 7136 documents were analysed using Excel, Python, Biblioshiny, and VOSviewer. Scientific production has multiplied by a factor of 6.6 from the first to the last year analysed. Armstrong D.G. is the most productive and cited author. China is the most productive country, and the United States is the most cited. The most productive journal is the International Journal of Lower Extremity Wounds, and the most cited journal is Diabetes Care. Research on diabetic foot is mainly focused on the complications of diabetes mellitus; the treatment and healing of wounds; infections; and epidemiology and patient care. Infections and antibiotic treatment are emerging topics, while deep learning and machine learning are among the niche topics in this area of knowledge. The present study allows us to identify current trends and future directions of research in diabetic foot.
