Ankle fusion
An ankle fusion is used to treat severe arthritis or instability by permanently joining the ankle bones with screws, plates or rods. These metal implants can provide long-term durability, with many lasting for decades.
Total ankle replacement surgery
Also used to address chronic ankle pain, total ankle replacement surgery replaces damaged bone and cartilage with metal or plastic components. When working effectively, it can help decrease joint discomfort and increase mobility.
