What you need to know about Ankle Surgery in Istanbul

Ankle Surgery is an option to consider when conservative treatments fail to alleviate severe arthritis pain in the ankle. The kind of surgery varies on factors such as age, activity level, and severity of the damage or deformity.

There are two main types of ankle surgeries; ankle fusion and ankle replacement. In ankle fusion, the surgeon fuses the damaged bones together reducing the ankle's motion but effectively relieving arthritis pain. It is usually recommended for younger, more active individuals. On the other hand, ankle replacement involves replacing the damaged bones with a plastic-and-metal joint. This retains more natural movement in the ankle but could loosen over time.

Ankle replacement is generally advised for less active individuals above 60 years. However, this procedure may be unsuitable for individuals who are under 50, have weak ankle ligaments, are significantly overweight, have misaligned ankle bones, suffer nerve damage from diabetes, are active in high-impact sports, or are heavy smokers.

What's the Recovery Time for Ankle Surgery Procedures in Istanbul?

Following your procedure, your wellbeing must come first. Therefore, it will be important for you to allot a period of four to six weeks to rest and recuperate. This translates into taking a necessary pause from your daily work routine. For those with occupations entailing physical labor, the time for convalescence may be considerably extended. Don't rush the process. Total recovery will be a marathon, not a sprint. You should anticipate it taking up to a year before resuming most of your regular activities. This allows for gradual, sustainable progress. Activities such as swimming, hiking, and cycling will once again be within your reach in due course. However, caution must still prevail. Avoid high-impact exercises that could compromise the integrity and stability of your new ankle. Take the long view of your recovery. Consider your health as an investment in your future joy and fulfillment. Your ongoing cooperation and patience during this crucial period will be instrumental in attaining a successful outcome.

What's the Success Rate of Ankle Surgery Procedures in Istanbul?

Operation success in ankle joint replacement surgery in Istanbul typically depends on several factors. Firstly, the surgery aims at significantly reducing the patient’s pain by replacing the arthritic ankle. Secondly, it seeks to correct any joint malalignment. Both objectives are usually well-achieved through careful pre-operative planning and the use of precise intra-operative equipment.

The post-surgery range of movement may vary among patients. However, most express satisfaction due to pain reduction, making any additional movement an added bonus. Rehabilitation protocols further help in achieving the best possible range of movement. Ultimately, patients must understand that surgery doesn't necessarily return the normal ankle flexibility but effectively alleviates ankle problems. With clear expectations and proper information, patients usually end up satisfied post-ankle replacement.
