Minimally Invasive SurgeryAnkle Arthroscopy

Ankle arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that uses a small camera and instruments inserted through tiny incisions to diagnose and treat joint issues. Common conditions treated include ligament injuries, cartilage damage, and impingement. This technique allows for faster recovery, reduced pain, and less scarring compared to open surgery.

Restoring FunctionTotal Ankle
Replacement

Total ankle replacement, or ankle arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure where a severely damaged ankle joint is replaced with an artificial implant. It’s often recommended for patients with end-stage arthritis. The goal is to relieve pain, restore mobility, and preserve joint motion, offering an alternative to ankle fusion.
