Osteotomies for the Management of Charcot Neuroarthropathy of the Foot and Ankle.
Clin Podiatr Med Surg. 2015 Jul; 32(3):405-18.CP

Abstract

Patients with diabetic neuropathy that develop unstable Charcot neuroarthropathy not only have an autoimmune disease that prolongs the healing process, they also often have an inability to maintain a non-weight bearing status. Charcot neuroarthopathy is often devastating to the structure and stability of the foot and ankle. This disease may require permanent bracing, reconstructive surgical stabilization, and in some cases lower leg amputation. Successful management of Charcot neuroarthopathy requires diligence and surveillance by physician and patient alike.
