Ankle replacement surgery

Un reemplazo de tobillo busca eliminar la articulación y los huesos que causan problemas y reemplazarlos con prótesis. El cirujano hace una incisión y corta o quita el hueso y la articulación dañados. Luego insertan una nueva articulación artificial y la conectan al hueso recién cortado. El cirujano coloca los tendones y los músculos en su sitio y cose la incisión. Algunas razones para realizar un reemplazo de tobillo son la osteoartritis, la infección, la artritis reumatoide o la fractura ósea.
