Rotation-hinged knee prosthesis for the treatment of Charcot arthropathy: a case report and literature review

Charcot arthropathy is a type of destructive osteoarthropathy characterized by neurotrophic and sensory disorders. The condition is relatively rare, with an insidious onset, and it is easily misdiagnosed. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) can cause excessive joint wear, continuous inflammatory stimulati...

The condition is relatively rare, with an insidious onset, and it is easily misdiagnosed. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) can cause excessive joint wear, continuous inflammatory stimulation of the prosthesis, postoperative residual cavity, prosthesis loosening and subsidence, peripheral fracture, infection, and other complications. Furthermore, these complications are more likely to occur in patients with Charcot arthropathy because of disease-specific pathological characteristics, when TKA is performed. Therefore, Charcot arthropathy was once a contraindication to TKA. Recently, with the optimization of joint prostheses and the maturity of surgical techniques, more studies have reported successful cases of TKA in patients with Charcot arthropathy.
