Abstract
The risk of amputation is dramatically increased in diabetic patients with osteomyelitis of the foot complicated by Charcot neuroarthropathy. Antibiotic-impregnated cement beads have been widely reported in the treatment of deep soft tissue and bone infections. This case report demonstrates that this approach can also aid the management of infected, unstable diabetic Charcot foot.
