Foot Shape and Asymmetry in the Charcot Foot: Assessment Using the Foot Posture Index.

CONCLUSIONS: This study provides new data on foot shape after CN. Patients with CN have feet that are significantly asymmetrical, and the affected foot may be more pronated or supinated. Feet affected by CN are characterized by shape, which is more frequently outside the normal range. The FPI-6 may be suitable for more widespread use in assessment and outcome measurement.
