Charcot's Neuroarthropathy After Simultaneous Pancreas-Kidney TransplantA Case Report.
Simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplant (SPKT) is an accepted approach and the treatment of choice in patients with type 1 diabetes with accompanying end-stage renal disease. Charcot's neuroarthropathy of the foot (CN) is a fairly common and devastating complication found in patients with long-standing, mostly uncontrolled, diabetes. However, CN has also been identified as a posttransplant consequence of SPKT.

This article describes an unusual case of a patient who presented with full-blown CN deformity after SPKT.
