Ankle replacement surgery is performed to replace the damaged articular surfaces of the three bones of the ankle joint with artificial implants. This procedure is now being preferred to arthrodesis (fusion of the bones) because ankle replacement surgery restores range of motion to the joint. The surgery is normally offered to patients with arthritis who do not suffer from osteoporosis of the ankle.

How does the ankle replacement surgery work?
Ankle replacement involves replacing the natural
surfaces of the ankle joint which have
degenerated with an artificial cover known as
prosthesis. The ankle replacement has three
components. Two of the components cover the
joint and in the middle there is a third, mobile
component. This allows for greater movement
and reduces the stress between the bone and the
implants.
