The Essential Charcot Neuroarthropathy: Biomechanics,
Pathophysiology, and MRI Findings provides a comprehensive analysis
of Charcot neuroarthropathy (or Charcot Foot) in diabetic patients.
All aspects are covered, including epidemiology, biomechanics,
pathophysiology, socioeconomic impacts, radiological findings, and
differential diagnosis, with an emphasis on MRI. Chapters address
the challenges of pre-and-post surgical management of Charcot
neuroarthropathy and the role of unconventional imaging modalities
in diagnosis. The book presents an analysis of the normal
biomechanics of the ankle and foot, the biomechanical derangements
of the ankle-foot unit (including abnormal gait) caused by diabetes
Type II, and more. Finally, there is also a reference of the
pathophysiology of diabetes-induced peripheral neuropathy and its
direct link with the development of Charcot neuroarthropathy foot.
Diabetes-induced Charcot foot is frequently misunderstood,
misinterpreted and misdiagnosed which can lead to confusion and
detrimental management with reported high morbidity.
