| Popis: | Combination of active stage of diabetic Charcot neuroosteoarthropathy and diabetic lower limb macroangiopathy is the rare condition. In the present paper we describe two cases of development of acute Charcot foot in the non-critically ischemic foot. The first case is the patient with previously diagnosed intermitted claudication and the second case is patient who developed the Charcot foot 5 months later after successful endovascular treatment of arterial occlusions of his left lower limb. In both cases the absence of redness in the early stage, the mild-to-moderate pain and mild temperature gradient between affected and non-affected feet were noticed. The clinical course of the Charcot disease in the first patient was favourable. He used walker for 9 months and his foot shape was preserved and deformity was considered as mild. The second patient had more active and profound destructions due to delay of the treatment. He was casted, however his deformity progressed and the treatment continues up to date. In both patients the MRI revealed more affected bones compared with X-ray. These cases emphasize the importance of keeping in mind the Charcot disease even in patients with diabetic peripheral vascular disease. |
