Lower Leg & Ankle Surgery
There are several types of ankle repair surgery depending on the type of injury or medical condition affecting the joint. One involves fusion of the ankle bones into one piece. Most people who need this surgery suffer from severe arthritis in the ankle and are not candidates for a total ankle replacement. Smooth cartilage covers the surface of the ankle bones, allowing them to glide together easily. If the cartilage is damaged or wears away due to disease or injury, the bones will rub against each other, causing inflammation and pain. In ankle fusion, two or more bones are fused together which helps stop the pain and swelling.
Medial and Lateral Meniscectomy
The two menisci in the knee are c-shaped areas of cartilage that act as shock absorbers. Either the lateral or the medial meniscus is repaired or removed in this type of surgery.
