Ankle fusion, also known as Ankle arthrodesis, is a surgical procedure aimed at joining the bones of the ankle into a single unit. It is commonly performed to address arthritis affecting the ankle joint.

The ankle joint, medically referred to as the tibiotalar joint, involves the articulation between the shinbone (tibia) and the talus bone of the foot. Additionally, the ankle encompasses the subtalar joint, where the talus bone connects with the calcaneus (heel bone).

Arthritis can impact both the tibiotalar and subtalar joints, causing gradual deterioration of the smooth cartilage covering the bone surfaces. This degeneration leads to symptoms such as pain, inflammation, and swelling within the affected joint.

Ankle arthrodesis is performed to relieve chronic ankle pain caused by extreme arthritis, injury, or deformities. It consists of fusing the ankle bones to remove movement and pain. This procedure is performed when conservative methods (such as medication or bracing) are ineffective.

Anyone with persistent ankle pain affecting walking and daily activities should consult a specialist, especially if the pain has not responded to nonoperative treatment. Increased swelling, instability, or deformity are all warning signs. Any patient with a history of significant injury or ankle surgery who has worsening symptoms should see a specialist.

Preparation involves X-rays, CT scans, or MRI to evaluate the joint and bone condition. You might be asked to discontinue some medications, quit smoking (to facilitate bone healing), and schedule assistive devices and home post-op care. Pre-op blood work and anesthesia evaluation are also performed.

Open or arthroscopic ankle arthrodesis may be planned for the joint condition. These implantations may occasionally be supplemented with bone grafting to promote healing and fusion of the bone. This procedure aims to stop motion in the diseased joint to alleviate pain.

The operation usually lasts 2 to 3 hours. It is done under regional or general anesthesia; patients typically remain in the hospital for 1–2 days.

  • Infection
  • Blood clots
  • Delayed bone healing
  • Nonunion (failure of bones to fuse)
  • Nerve injury
  • Adjacent joint arthritis

The primary advantages are marked relief from pain and enhanced capacity for walking and weight-bearing. Though motion at the ankle is lost, patients recover functional mobility and return to normal or almost normal activities without discomfort.

Patients start by avoiding weight on the affected ankle for 6 to 8 weeks using crutches or a walker. During healing, the ankle is often immobilised in a cast or boot. Afterwards, physical therapy strengthens the surrounding muscles and allows adaptation to the new joint mechanics. Some swelling could last a few months, while full recovery often takes 4 to 6 months.

Ankle fusion surgery has a high success rate, with 80%–90% of surgical procedures achieving complete fusion and symptom relief. The method is most efficient in relieving pain and stabilising the ankle joint.
