Ankle Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis of Ankle

Presentation

As this is a synovial joint, a membrane is present as well as a fibrous membrane providing the same functions as any other synovial joint synovial membrane [4] [4] [4] [4] [4] [4] [4] [4] [4] [4]. [physio-pedia.com]

We see people in everyday practice who present with a new hip joint (replaced because of osteoarthritis) and now have a fracture in another bone and osteoporosis, just like your mother. [versusarthritis.org]

Other systemic diseases such as hemochromatosis or hemophilia might be present in patients with secondary ankle OA, however, in a lower percentage than in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (Table 1 ). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatment

Our study is the largest in the world on the safety of stem cell treatments. [regenexx.com]

Sometimes more than one type of surgical treatment is needed [25]. [physio-pedia.com]

Our specialities include complex bunion surgery as well as efficient treatment for plantar fasciitis. [londonorthopaedic.com]

Surgery If your pain causes disability and is not relieved by nonsurgical treatment, surgery may be recommended. The appropriate surgery will depend on the type and location of the arthritis and the impact of the disease on your joints. [shorelineortho.com]

Etiology

[…] among the three main etiology subgroups. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Etiology of ankle osteoarthritis. Journal Clin Orthop Relat Res 467: 1800-1806. ↑ Zhang Y., Jordan J. (2010). Epidemiology of Osteoarthritis. [physio-pedia.com]

Epidemiology

Epidemiology of Osteoarthritis. Clinical Geriatric Medicine 26(3): 355-369.fckLRLevel of Evidence: C ↑ Saltzman CL, Salamon ML, Blanchard GM,Huff T, Hayes A, Buckwalter JA, Amendola A. Epidemiology of Ankle Arthritis. [physio-pedia.com]

This result is in the same order of magnitude as the results of the epidemiology study by Saltzman et al., who reported a posttraumatic ankle OA rate of 70% [ 33 ]. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prevention

The focus of performing arts medicine/is performance enhancement through injury prevention. [londonorthopaedic.com]

Because trauma is the dominant etiology of ankle OA, more research is needed to determine contributing factors of OA and prevent development of posttraumatic ankle OA. Acknowledgments We thank Dr Tak S. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Many people are willing to accept the balance of taking potentially ‘toxic’ medication against the benefit of reducing inflammation, reducing symptoms and preventing joint damage. [versusarthritis.org]
