Management of the Charcot Foot and Ankle: Nonreconstructive Surgery.
Clinics in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery 2022 October
Diabetic neuroarthropathy is a complication of diabetes mellitus that results in instability of the foot, structural deformity, and soft-tissue breakdown. Commonly, midfoot collapse of the medial, lateral, or both longitudinal arches may result in increased plantar pressures and subsequent midfoot ulceration. Many of these wounds can be successfully managed with local wound care and off-loading; however, surgical intervention becomes necessary in cases of osteomyelitis or when the wound fails to heal despite conservative efforts. In cases where surgical reconstruction may not be indicated, nonreconstructive surgical efforts have shown effectiveness in resolving wounds and allowing patients to return to ambulatory lifestyles. This article serves as an update to current treatment recommendations for the nonreconstructive surgical management of Charcot neuroarthropathy.
