[ Ссылка ] David A. Friscia – Director of Foot & Ankle Surgery at Eisenhower Desert Orthopedic Center – brings us up to date on some exciting new developments in Ankle Replacement Surgery. Candidates for Total Ankle Replacement Surgery include people who have arthritis of the ankle and are experiencing stiffness, pain and possibly instability and deformity of the joint. For people who have failed conservative treatment, which includes anti-inflammatories, injections, etc., yet still have daily pain, ankle problems are now treatable. In the past that treatment was fusion of the ankle, which relieved the pain, however, it left the ankle joint stiff. Ankle replacements have been perfected in recent years with better instrumentation and better materials. Dr. Friscia demonstrates how this new ankle replacement surgery works using a model of the ankle. More information is available at [ Ссылка ] or by contacting Eisenhower Desert Orthopedic Center to schedule an appointment: (760) 773-4545.
