Özet
The Bureau-Barrière syndrome is described as an acral ulcer with mutilating osteolysis of the limbs that is nonfamiliar, non-sex-specific, induced by many factors, and elicited by sensory-trophic polyneuropathy. The clinical symptomatology is usually based on the diagnostic triad: analgesia of the foot, perforating ulcers of the foot on the pressure areas, and deforming and mutilating arthropathy of the lower limb. Often a bilateral location at the lower limb of male alcoholics has been described. We report about a 65-year-old alcoholic man with bilateral acroosteolysis and ulceration of toes and discuss the relevant clinical aspects of the Bureau-Barrière syndrome. Treatment is often hampered due to poor compliance with local care and persistence of alcohol abuse. Copyright © 2010 by Türkiye Klinikleri.
