Core Tip Charcot neuroarthropathy requires early diagnosis, strict offloading, and stage-specific treatment. Most acute cases are managed conservatively, but advanced hindfoot and ankle deformity often require tibiotalocalcaneal fusion. Success depends on rigid fixation, biological support, and careful postoperative protection.
