Abstract
Ankle arthritis is a common condition. It causes a significant socioeconomic burden, and is associated with significant morbidity. Patients with ankle arthritis are either elderly with significant co-morbidities, or young adults who have previously suffered with ankle injuries, resulting in post-traumatic arthritis. There is a wide variation in the management of these patients with ankle arthritis. We therefore present an overview of the current evidence based management of patients with symptomatic ankle arthritis.Entities:
