    Author: Janis LR, Wilke B, Beasley BD, Ploot E, Lam AT.
    Journal: Clin Podiatr Med Surg; 2003 Apr; 20(2):335-59. PubMed ID: 12776985.
    Abstract:
    This article discusses the joint degeneration progression associated with post-traumatic arthrosis of the ankle. A representative case study of this debilitating condition was outlined, and treatment with total ankle joint replacement was presented. Although ankle arthrodesis continues to be a standard option following the progression of severe post-traumatic osteoarthritis, total ankle replacement is maturing as a viable option for this condition.
