Patients suffer from reduced functionality and quality of life as well as immobilizing pain. In addition to an ankle joint prosthesis arthrodesis of the upper ankle joint offers an alternative for the treatment of advanced arthrosis. When performing an arthrodesis there is basically the option of both open and arthroscopic procedures to prepare the joint and remove the cartilage. In both procedures the upper ankle joint is usually fixed with 2-3 cannulated compression screws. Comparative studies to date have shown an advantage of the arthroscopic technique in terms of complication rate, length of hospitalization, proportion of ossification and functional outcome.

The most frequent reasons for revision of an ankle prosthesis are aseptic loosening, technical implantation errors and persisting pain. For the revision of an ankle prosthesis there are basically two treatment options. For a long time, ankle arthrodesis was considered the gold standard after a failed prosthesis. In recent years, there has been an increasing trend towards re-implantation of an ankle prosthesis, as this preserves the functionality and mobility of the ankle joint as far as possible.
