“…4,5,20 Eventually, CN can be triggered by repetitive trauma that causes stress fractures in previously osteopenic bones (neurotrauma theory). 21 In contrast, peripheral arterial vasodilation, due to paralysis of the smooth muscle of the blood vessel wall (autosympathectomy), is directly responsible for the reduction in blood flow velocity, and, apparently, it is involved in the increase in bone resorption rate, thus contributing to the installation of the destructive process of CN (neurovascular theory). 21 Anatomical considerations are important in the diagnosis of CN, as shown by the Brodsky classification 4 modified by Trepman et al 22 (►Table 1).…”

“…The vast majority of patients with CN present symptoms related to pain in the midfoot, as well as edema and erythema. 20,21 However, as in the early acute phase of the disease no noticeable deformity is present yet, many patients are misdiagnosed as having cellulitis, gout, or tenosynovitis. 23 Due to misdiagnosis, many patients are mistakenly treated with antibiotics, corticosteroids or even with surgery indicated for "abscess drainage".…”
