Abstract
We present this case because of the challenges in surgery for instrumentation of new Charcot spinal arthropathy. Reports of neuroarthropathy developing above the level of spinal cord injury and at the cervicothoracic junction are rare. The treating surgeon should be cognizant of the possibility of developing secondary levels of neuroarthropathy above and below a previously successful fusion.
