Why the Risk of Developing Neuroarthropathy Is Higher After Simultaneous Kidney and Pancreatic Transplantation Compared to Kidney Transplantation Only: The Role of Euglycemia.

Charcot's neuroarthropathy is a destructive complication of the joint, which is often found in patients living with diabetes. Despite the fact that its description was published almost 100 years ago, its pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment remain areas that need to be updated. Its prevalence is low in patients living with diabetes, but this increases in particular situations such as peripheral neuropathy, as well as after simultaneous kidney-pancreas transplantation (SPKT) in patients living with type 1 diabetes.
