Diabetic cheiroarthropathy is a periarticular pathology that concerns diabetes mellitus, especially the insulin-dependent and long-term variety. Normally it is asymptomatic and consists of a pain-free limited extension of the metacarpophalangeal and/or proximal interphalangeal joints, with a spontaneous posture of slight flexion in the fingers. It can be accompanied by other rheumatological pathologies usually associated with diabetes.
