Charcot foot or neurogenic osteoarthropathy is a serious complication of diabetic peripheral neuropathy. The association between false aneurysm and Charcot foot is yet uncommon and has not been reported through the literature. We describe a case of false aneurysm in a Charcot foot in a 55‐year‐old female patient.
