| Résumé : |
- In the presence of peripheral neuropathy, a swollen, red, and warm foot can be due to Charcot neuroarthropathy.
- Intense inflammatory reaction triggered by the Charcot process can lead to fragmentation of bones, instability of joints, and damage to the ligaments, resulting in foot deformity. - The key outcome of treatment of Charcot foot is to achieve a shoeable, plantigrade and stable foot that allows weight-bearing with no risk of ulceration. |
