โœฆ Synopsis

The diabetic Charcot foot syndrome is a serious and potentially limb-threatening lower-extremity complication of diabetes. First described in 1883, this enigmatic condition continues to challenge even the most experienced practitioners. Now considered an inflammatory syndrome, the diabetic Charcot foot is characterized by varying degrees of bone and joint disorganization secondary to underlying neuropathy, trauma, and perturbations of bone metabolism. An international task force of experts was convened by the American Diabetes Association and the American Podiatric Medical Association in January 2011 to summarize available evidence on the pathophysiology, natural history, presentations, and treatment recommendations for this entity.

Charcot arthropathy is a disabling complication of diabetic neuropathy. It is however, unclear why it occurs in only a small number of neuropathic patients. We have studied 12 diabetic patients (10 insulin-dependent) with an acute Charcot arthropathy, and compared their neuropathy and vascular respo
