Is late corrective arthrodesis in nonplantigrade diabetic charcot midfoot disease associated with high complication and reoperation rates?
Late corrective arthrodesis with medial and lateral column stabilization in the nonplantigrade stages of neuroosteoarthropathy can provide reasonable reconstruction of the foot alignment. Nonetheless, overall complication/reoperation rates were high. With separation into low/high risk criteria a helpful guide in treatment choice is provided. This trial is registered with German Clinical Trials Register (DRKS) under number DRKS00007537.
Postoperative macular thickening following cataract surgery in patients with non- or mild nonproliferative-diabetic retinopathy cannot be fully suppressed by either topical diclofenac or betamethasone. Nonetheless, diclofenac protected against an early event of postoperative CME and also a decrease of IOP.
