  • The authors report the case of a 72-year-old man with impaired glucose tolerance and a hypoplastic right-leg deformity of unknown aetiology, who presented with acute Charcot neuroarthropathy in the residual foot. Charcot now rarely occurs in the absence of established diabetes in the developed world.
