Abstract

Diabetic Charcot neuro-osteoarthropathy is a severe, multifactorial limb-threatening entity with a neuropathic background. It evolves from bones, joints and soft tissue inflammation, to permanent deformity, recurrent ulcerations and amputation, if left untreated. This particular case emphasizes the ultrasound's conclusiveness in diagnosing inflammatory recurrence and orthopedic hardware behavior after corrective arthrodesis, thus permitting the correct therapeutic decision to offload the foot. Ultrasonography proves its undeniable applicability whenever other imaging-techniques are unavailable, inconclusive, or rejected by the patient.

糖尿病Charcot神经骨关节病介入后超声监测。病例报告。

糖尿病Charcot神经骨关节病是一种严重的、多因素的肢体威胁实体，具有神经病变背景。如果不及时治疗，它会从骨骼、关节和软组织炎症发展到永久性畸形、复发性溃疡和截肢。这个特殊的病例强调了超声在诊断关节置换术后炎症复发和矫形硬件行为方面的结论性，从而允许正确的治疗决定卸载足部。超声检查证明了其不可否认的适用性，当其他成像技术是不可用的，不确定的，或拒绝病人。
