A high percentage of patients with ankle injuries experience secondary arthrosis, discomfort while weight bearing, and difficulty in walking despite most exacting surgical reconstruction procedures. These conditions, considerably reducing the patient’s mobility and ability to work, are partly due to the severity of the injury, but occasionally also due to unsatisfactory surgical procedures which fail to restore an anatomic position of the fragments. Besides post-traumatic osteoarthritis, infections of the ankle joint, congenital foot deformities, and unfavorably positioned, essentially ankylosed joints associated with paralysis constitute indications for arthrodesis.
