Maryam Mobini et al. Arch Iran Med. 2009 Nov.

Abstract

This report describes a 23-year-old man who presented with multiple joint deformities as a consequence of multiple painless intra-articular fractures.Blood counts, biochemistry, and nerve conduction velocity were all normal. X-ray studies showed joint destruction in hips, elbows and knees.We concluded that he is a case of congenital insensitivity to pain culminating in multiple charcot joints.
