Radiographyisusefulforassessingthebonydestructionandpotentialjointcompromiseseen
with Charcot arthropathy. Plain films can also be used to stage disease and to monitor
progression(Fig.19-5).
Bonescansmay helpdifferentiateneuropathic jointarthropathyfrom osteomyelitis;MRI
imaging can provide greater anatomic detail and may also help differentiate Charcot
arthropathyfromosteomyelitis.

Several systemic diseases may manifest wholly, or in part, with lower extremity findings.
Recognitionofthesignsandsymptomsinvolvingthelowerextremitiesthatportend systemic
illnessesoftenrequiresahighindexofsuspicion.Treatingtheprimarydiseaseprocessesthat
underlie the manifestations affecting the lower extremities is often necessary in order to
adequatelyaddress thesymptomatology that prompted a given patient toseekcare. In those
caseswherepatientsareunawareofayetundiagnosedsystemicillness,educationisnecessary
toensurethatthepatientappreciateshowmanagementoftheprimarydiseasecanimprovethe

the ability to produce hematologic complications. The physician should not overlook
hematologic disorders as being among the etiologic agents responsible for foot and ankle

SICKLECELLANEMIA
Sicklecellanemiaisanexampleofahematologicdiseasethatmaycauseulcersaffectingthe
lower extremities. TheU.S. Cooperative Study of Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) reported that
about 25% ofpatients with the disease over age 10 years hadahistoryof legulcers.1 The
diseaseaffects50,000to100,000peopleintheUnitedStates.2Itsgeographicaldistributionis
variable, affecting 75% of patients in Jamaica but only 8% to 10% of North American
patients.

Thedifferentialdiagnosesincludebacterial,viral,andfungaldermatoses;drugeruptions;
leukocytoclastic vasculitides; Sweetsyndrome; and pyoderma gangrenosum. Leukemia cutis
may occur simultaneously with or before the medullary disease. Leukemia cutis typically
develops late inthe course ofestablished acuteleukemia. Incontrast, when it develops in
associationwith chronic myelogenous leukemia or other myeloproliferative disorders, it is
usuallyasignofimpendingblastictransformation.Earlycutaneousinvolvementoccursmore

chloroacetate esterase activity and Leu-M1 positivity; and the presence of lysozyme, α1-

The prognosis for leukemia cutis is related directly to the prognosis for the systemic
disease.

CRYOGLOBULINEMIA
Initially described by Wintrobe and Buell in 1933, cryoglobulins (CGs) were found in a
patient withmultiple myeloma.PatientswithCGs are classifiedintothreetypes.TypeIare

cryoglobulinemias are associated with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or lymphoma.
Autoimmunediseases,suchasSjögrensyndromeandrheumatoidarthritis,arefoundinpatients
with type II cryoglobulinemia. Type III cryoglobulinemia is seen in patients with systemic
lupus erythematosus (SLE), periarteritis nodosa, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, and
hematologic proliferative disorders. Infections, including hepatitis B, mononucleosis,
cytomegalovirus,subacutebacterialendocarditis,andtoxoplasmosis,canbefoundinpatients

no clinical signs of underlying disease. Cryoglobulinemia was initially noted to occur

cryoglobulinemiaisnowconsideredtobehepatitisCvirus(HCV).Cutaneousmanifestations
are themost typical clinical sign of cryoglobulinemic vasculitis. They range from palpable

MYELOPROLIFERATIVEDISORDERS
Asaresultofimpairmentofthecutaneousmicrocirculation, hemorrheology,orthe effectof
hydroxyurea, ulcerations of the leg may occur in myeloproliferative disorders. The use of
hydroxyurea mayhaveasasideeffectthepresentationofsuchlegulcers.Infact,theuseof
hydroxyurea in legulcers mayresultin a wound size increase. Ifthe legulcers are dueto
hydroxyurea and the drug is stopped, typically healing occurs. Anoption is touse another
cytotoxic agent if one is available, but it too may result in a leg ulcer. The differential
diagnosis of myeloproliferative disease is vasculitis, cryoglobulinemeia, and pyoderma

ANTIPHOSPHOLIPIDSYNDROME
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an acquired, multisystemic disorder characterized by
recurrentthrombosesinthearterialsystem,venoussystem,orboth.APSisclassifiedintotwo
groups:primaryandsecondary.
SecondaryAPSisoftenassociatedwithSLEandinfrequentlywithotherdiseases,suchas
lymphoproliferativedisorders,autoimmunediseases,infections(e.g.,syphilis,HIV,HCV),and
drugs (e.g., procainamide, quinidine, hydralazine, phenytoin, chlorpromazine). Serologic
markers for APSare antiphospholipid antibodies (β2-glycoprotein I or anticardiolipins) or
lupusanticoagulant.
Theprimarydiagnosticcriteriaincludearterial thrombosis, venous thrombosis, recurrent
fetalloss,andthrombocytopenia.Oneofthelistedprimarycriteriaisrequiredfordiagnosis,
combinedwithasustainedelevatedtiterofIgGanticardiolipinorlupusanticoagulant,which

A large retrospective study from the Mayo Clinic of patients with lupus anticoagulant
included41%whohadskinlesionsasthefirstsignofAPS.Cutaneousmanifestationsinclude
livedo reticularis, necrotizing vasculitis, livedo vasculitis, thrombophlebitis, cutaneous

subungualsplinterhemorrhages.

LIVEDORETICULARIS
Occasionally, livedo reticularis will cause ulcers of the foot. The disease is a condition
associated with reddish blue, mottled, reticular, or blotchy discoloration that resembles a
fishnet. Ulcerations occur onlyrarely, starting primarilyinthesummermonths.A case was
reported in which ulcers were present and caused by IgA anticardiolipin antibodies. As a
