Circular Frame Strategies for Ankle and Hindfoot Charcot Reconstruction.

Abstract

Ankle and hindfoot Charcot neuroarthropathy is a complex problem and should be carefully assessed and managed to prevent morbidity and limb loss. Circular frames offer a range of options to address a wide variety of clinical situations and also complement internal fixation techniques. Multidisciplinary care and specialist skills to provide frame treatment are essential for a successful outcome.
