Ankle fusion provides an excellent salvage for an otherwise intolerable deformity or painful joint derangement. It is the only available alternative for a failed ankle prosthesis. It produces a serviceable foot when done in proper perspective for the appropriate indication. It produces a good result when consolidation occurs and the remaining tarsal joints have preserved integrity. Improvement in occupational and daily activities can be anticipated when arthrodesis and correct alignment are obtained.
踝关节融合术为原本无法忍受的畸形或疼痛性关节紊乱提供了极佳的挽救方法。它是踝关节假体失败后的唯一可行替代方案。在针对适当适应症并从正确角度进行手术时，它能形成一个可用的足部。当融合发生且其余跗关节保持完整时，会产生良好的效果。当实现关节融合和正确对线时，职业活动和日常活动有望得到改善。
