Charcot Reconstruction
Major reconstruction that rebuilds a collapsed Charcot foot into a stable, walkable shape, in India.
Charcot foot reconstruction in India is major surgery to rebuild a foot that has collapsed and deformed from Charcot neuroarthropathy, realigning and fusing the bones into a stable, level (plantigrade) foot that can bear weight and fit footwear, so the limb is saved and recurrent ulcers are prevented. At Elegance Diabetic Foot & Ulcer Clinic (EDFC) it is performed by Dr. Ashutosh Shah (M.S., M.Ch., a Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeon with 22+ years’ experience) in Surat, Gujarat and Vizianagaram, Andhra Pradesh.
Why Charcot Reconstruction Matters
Charcot foot can silently destroy the bones and joints, leaving a deformed, unstable foot that ulcerates repeatedly and risks amputation. When bracing and footwear can no longer keep it safe, reconstruction rebuilds a stable foot. It is one of the most important limb-salvage operations in diabetic foot care.
What Charcot Reconstruction Involves
- Detailed planning with an MRI and other imaging.
- Realigning the collapsed bones into a stable arch.
- Fusing and fixing them with screws, plates, rods or external frames.
- Removing bony prominences and healing any ulcer.
- A long, protected recovery so the foot fuses in its corrected shape.
Who Needs Charcot Reconstruction
- People with a severely deformed or unstable Charcot foot.
- Those with recurrent ulcers that footwear and bracing cannot control.
- Patients whose foot cannot safely bear weight.
- Anyone facing amputation who may be saved by reconstruction.
