Abstract

A number of published guidelines exist on the diabetic foot, yet the sections on Charcot neuroarthropathy (CN) focus mainly on diagnosis and conservative therapy. Surgical aspects, if ever present, are addressed very briefly and are very limited on surgical information and guidelines (1). For this reason, a group of German and Austrian foot surgeons who are well acquainted with the operative treatment of CN established a consensus statement despite a plethora of existing diverging opinions. The following proposal is far from scientific evidence, but may be the basis for an ongoing discussion and further research opportunity.
