Talectomy for diabetic Charcot foot. An alternative to amputation

RK Tom and GR Pupp
Kern Hospital, Warren, MI.

A talectomy was performed because of Charcot degeneration during recovery from a hallux amputation. The patient was treated conservatively but Charcot degeneration continued, resulting in ulceration and dorsomedial dislocation of the talar head. The patient was hospitalized, and the talectomy was performed. The patient returned to normal activities.
