Ankle Arthroscopy

Ankle Arthroscopy

Arthroscopy is a procedure where a small video camera attached to a fiber-optic lens is inserted into the body to allow a physician or surgeon to see inside the joint without making a large incision. Arthroscopy, which is considered a minimally invasive technique, is now used to evaluate and treat orthopedic problems in many different joints of the body including the ankle.This guide will help you understand:
Peroneal Tendon Subluxation

Peroneal Tendon Subluxation

The peroneals are two muscles and their tendons that attach along the outer edge of the lower leg. The peroneal tendons are enclosed in a fibrous tunnel that runs behind the outside ankle bone (the lateral malleolus). Damage or injury to the structures that form and support this tunnel may lead to a condition in which the peroneal tendons snap out of place. This condition is called peroneal tendon subluxation.
Artificial Joint Replacement of the Ankle

Artificial Joint Replacement of the Ankle

Surgery to replace the ankle joint with an artificial joint (called ankle arthroplasty) is becoming more common. This surgery is not done as often as replacement of the knee or hip joints. Still, when necessary, this operation can reduce the pain from arthritis of the ankle. Recent advances in the design of the artificial ankle and changes in the way the operation is performed have made artificial ankle replacement a growing alternative to ankle fusion for the treatment of ankle arthritis...
Ankle Fusion

Ankle Fusion

An ankle fusion is a surgical procedure that is usually done when an ankle joint becomes worn out and painful, a condition called degenerative arthritis. Ankle fusion is sometimes called ankle arthrodesis.
