Is it necessary to have Ankle arthroscopy?

For ankle conditions, usually a course of supervised physical therapy is recommended first. However, if the joint remains stiff, painful or locks, then it requires surgery.

What Happens during Ankle Arthroscopy?

Ankle Arthroscopy is used to visualise the whole joint. Ankle locking is usually caused by loose body which is arthroscopically removed. Cartilage injuries and osteochondral fractures can also be diagnosed and treated using arthroscopy. Bony overgrowth around the elbow called bone spur can be painful. This can be removed arthroscopically. The surgery usually takes about an hour. Patients may be discharged same day or might have to stay in the hospital a few days depending on treatment and physiotherapy needs.
