If possible, could any of the physicians (who have unknown to them been very instrumental in my decision to pursue podiatry, which is much appreciated) on the message board provide an overview of Charcot Reconstruction procedure. I have been able to study/understand almost every procedure performed by podiatric surgeons except for Charcot Reconstruction, and this is mostly out of curiousity.
A few questions:
(1) What is the optimal prognosis following a successful surgery and recovery?
(2) Is this a long and tedious procedure, because it almost seems impossible and absurd?
(3) How often is this procedure performed?
I sincerely appreciate your response. I once again thank many of the surgeons on the message (podfather, kidsfeet, jonwill, PADPM, and others) who continually respond quickly and thoroughly to so many questions. I have begun interviews at Podiatric Medical Schools and I am VERY excited about the my personal career and the direction of the profession.
