Total Ankle Replacement Surgery | Nucleus Health

[@williamfabrey9273]

I had a total ankle replacement a year ago, I broke my ankle in the 70's, it was a severe brake, in a cast for 18 weeks, healed well until arthritis settled in a number of years later!! I was unable to walk in the grass, or snow it had to be on a even surface!! The pain was quite severe and was unable to walk correctly, I even loss my calf muscle!! After surgery I'm now able to walk on any types of surfaces, I get pain when I'm on my feet for long periods, I keep trying different types of shoes, dosen't help much, but if I walk bare footed I have no pain, going to have a talk with my surgeon!!!!

@@kylemacdonald2929 lol I'll be 35 Tuesday, have you been leaning towards one or the other? There's a 3rd option I heard that regenerates your joints. I'll give you the name once I remember in case you wanna research. But the price is astronomical, you know insurance doesn't wanna pay for something that will actually restore, they'd rather just slap a bandaid on it.

[@kylemacdonald2929]

@@alexandrac9363 yes if it’s stem cells I’ve looked into it it’s very pricey and not covered! everything that might fix the problem usually isn’t covered. lol but if I have to choose between fusion or replacement it’s going to be a replacement 100%

[@alexandrac9363]

@@kylemacdonald2929 yep, that's exactly what I was trying to remember. I can't even afford the flight and hotel stay let alone the surgery. And I'm with you on the NO fusion. I opted to just have bone spur removal and some hardware taken out until I decide because my Ortho told me that if the replacement doesn't take for some reason, I could risk losing my foot. So yeah he kinda ruined that idea bc I can't live with the thought of something happening and me losing my entire foot.

[@kylemacdonald2929]

@@alexandrac9363 ya I’ve had now 7 surgeries I had my hardware removed in 2020 and I just had bone spurs and arthritis scraping done this march was my last surgery but my ankle is so bad not much else they can do. My surgeon told me it’s very very rare for the replacement not to take tho or your body to reject it of course there is always a chance but it’s very rare. I’ve been looking into something right now tho to prolong my injury a bit longer I am hearing great things about peptides it’s called BBC 157 people swear by it can repair cartilage and bone and joints. It’s a type of peptide I am going to try it what’s the loss it doesn’t work and I am at square one again lol if it works I don’t have to get a replacement

[@danoneall4013]

[@4xcasey]

How are you doing with your replacements now?

[@carollutz8253]

Due to a structural deformity (tibia meeting talus at the wrong angle) I had a TAR 4 weeks ago on my right ankle. Fortunately, I had Dr. Schuberth (Kaiser, San Francisco) who's done a ton of these and has a high success rate (in the 90's). After being non-weight bearing for 2 weeks, I got a weight bearing cast and slowly began putting weight on it. One month later, I can walk! It's stiff, and my gait will take some work, but, I can walk! Incidentally, mine is the Paragon 28. I do need to have the other one replaced as well.

[@Rentalcondo1377]

Very painfull and difficult so far after the first 4 months. They cut the nerve becasue the blade went too far and damage my tandon. Also, during the surgery shattered the modial Malleolus. The x-ray after 3 months shows that. Now! I have so much pain and swellings. So this surgery is not that easy and you should be preperd for it. My implant brand name was " Hintermann Series H3 TAR" wich have a age front of Tibia where exatly you big toe's nerves traped under this age to of tibia. I see so many comments here which they don't have much cloue like me before surgery. Do not do this surgery except there is no other option left. This is my opinion after 4 months. Please if someone already down this before me with the same brand, leave me a reply. My doctor said I would never get motion like my other ankle. why all this risks are being told after the surgery. Do you home work and learn about whtn is the brand of the implant and go to that webesite and see what are the risk of nerve damage or fractures and everything else.

[@DChappelle27]

Any surgery is a gamble, and results will vary from patient to patient. I have had two ankle surgeries in the last year, and fusion/replacement are possible down the road, but my surgeon has already made me well aware it's a last ditch effort when you go down that road. Unless your ankle is so bad and causing extreme pain and basically preventing you from walking, then yes it makes sense to do TAR. Theres mo way a foot and ankle specialist should be telling you it's the best option and things will get way better... it's basically for pain relief so you can do things like walk for 30 mins without major discomfort. You're sacrificing overall mobility in your ankle to reduce pain basically. So that's why I'm gunna need to be in some agonizing cant function pain before going for the next step
