Introduction: Charcot arthropathy is a condition which is
progressive, non-infectious, destructive and debilitating that
commonly affect foot and ankle. This systematic review is to
evaluate the occurrence of common outcomes associated
with each intervention of Charcot neuroarthropathy in
midfoot.
Materials and methods: A systematic review on literatures
that were published from Jan 2010 to Jan 2020 were
collected, reviewed and selected regarding the surgical
treatment procedures of Charcot neuroarthropathy in
midfoot.
Results: The initial search yielded 231 reports and after
exclusion, nine out of the total studies were included in the
outcome analysis for review. These were studies that
included data concerning surgical reconstruction of Charcot
arthropathy in the midfoot.
Conclusion: It is suggested that soft tissue preparation and
usage of combination of implants thus reduce the risk of
infection as well as increase rigidity of construct,
respectively. These factors will aid to improve outcome of
