ARTHROPATHY OF THE WRIST IN A PATIENT WITH DIABETIC NEURITIS

Abstract
A case of upper‐extremity destructive hypertrophic arthritis in a 64‐year‐old patient with diabetic neuropathy is presented. No previous report of such a lesion involving the upper extremity could be found.As an increasing number of well controlled diabetic patients attain a longer life span, the incidence of diabetic neuropathy will rise, as will the incidence of associated arthropathies.
