TRK inhibition can lead to on-target neurologic adverse events. Two cases illustrate the development of neuropathic arthropathy as a side effect of entrectinib. After starting entrectinib, both patients developed foot pain, swelling, and sensory changes with magnetic resonance imaging revealing marrow edema. Providers should have a low threshold to investigate foot pain or gait abnormalities thoroughly with magnetic resonance imaging and referral to specialists to aid in the diagnosis of neuropathic arthropathy, with consideration to transition to an alternative agent.

Therapeutic role of Differential Target Multiplexed (DTM) spinal cord stimulation in painful diabetic neuropathy. Case report.

Diabetic peripheral polyneuropathy (DPN) is the most common cause for diabetic foot complications, including diabetic ulcers, Charcot arthropathy, and lower limb amputations. Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) is a safe and effective treatment used for pain reduction in neuropathic/nociceptive pain conditions; the most common stimulation modalities used for the management of painful diabetic neuropathy were conventional paresthesia-based and high-frequency SCS, which stimulate the A beta fibers in the dorsal column of the spinal cord. Differential Target Multiplexed (DTM) SCS is a novel paresthesia-free stimulation technique targeting the supportive glial cells in the nervous system, modulating glial cells and neurons with a rebalance of their interactions.

Introduction: Charcot neuroarthropathy (CN) can result in fractures and dislocations of the foot and ankle in individuals with diabetes and neuropathy, leading to ulceration, amputation and a poor quality of life. Additional episodes of acute CN can lead to extended periods of physical and psychosocial distress. The aim of this scoping review was to identify and synthesise the evidence relating to factors associated with the development of recurrent and contralateral Charcot neuroarthropathy (CN) in individuals with diabetes.

Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) continues to develop as a viable alternative to traditional open surgery for various foot and ankle pathologies. The neuropathic foot is one area where MIS can be very beneficial to surgeons and their patients. Improving wound healing and decreasing the surgical footprint and thus reducing complications associated with soft tissue in this population is advantageous.

Article Synopsis
- Deposition arthropathies are a diverse group of diseases characterized by the buildup of organic and inorganic substances in the body, leading to various complications and health issues.
- Despite being distinct conditions, they often present similar clinical symptoms, making imaging studies crucial for accurate diagnosis by highlighting unique features of specific pathologies.
- Neuropathic arthropathy, particularly Charcot's foot, must be carefully differentiated during joint evaluations as it has a different radiological appearance, treatment approach, and prognosis compared to other deposition arthropathies.

Neuropathic deformities of the lesser toes refer to a variety of neuromuscular disorders in which a stiff lesser toe deformity is encountered. Claw toes, hammer toes, and mallet toes can be found. Each deformity is better described as which joint of a particular toe is in a flexed or extended position.
