Further advances in Total Ankle Replacements continue. By using CT scans and 3D printing technology, we are now able to re-create a mould of your ankle arthritis & deformity, and with the use of specific patient-specific cutting & alignment guides, further perfect the technique of total ankle replacements so that this minimizes operating time & complications, correcting your arthritis better to give you better longevity with your ankle replacement.
In future, we should be able to utilise virtual reality training to help us trial our techniques before surgery, ensuring smoother operating techniques and reducing complications.
