Achilles tendinopathy is a condition that causes pain and stiffness in the Achilles tendon, which is the band of tissue that connects the calf muscles to the heel bone. Achilles tenoplasty is a surgical procedure that involves lengthening the Achilles tendon and reattaching it to the heel bone to relieve pain caused by insertional Achilles tendinopathy.
Fracture repair of the foot and ankle is a surgical procedure that is performed to treat broken bones in the foot or ankle. This procedure may involve the use of plates, screws, or pins to hold the broken bones in place while they heal.
Ankle arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that uses a small camera and specialized instruments to diagnose and treat various problems in the ankle joint such as ligament tears, bone spurs, and loose bodies.
Ankle joint replacement is a surgical procedure that involves removing a damaged ankle joint and replacing it with an artificial joint. This procedure is done to relieve pain, improve mobility, and restore function to the ankle joint.
Foot and joint dislocation surgeries are performed to reposition bones that have been displaced due to injury or trauma. This procedure involves manipulating the bones back into their proper position and stabilizing them with plates, screws, or other devices.
Removal of foreign bodies from the foot or ankle may involve surgery to remove objects such as broken glass, metal, or other debris that have become lodged in the foot or ankle.
Excision of soft tissue mass is a surgical procedure that is done to remove abnormal growths such as cysts or tumors from the foot or ankle. This procedure is typically performed when the growths are causing pain or discomfort or when they are suspected of being cancerous.
Nerve release for diabetic neuropathy is a surgical procedure that involves releasing nerves that have become compressed or entrapped, causing pain, numbness, or tingling in the foot or ankle. This procedure is done to relieve symptoms and improve quality of life for patients with diabetes.
Incision and drainage of abscess is a surgical procedure that involves removing pus and infected tissue from a localized infection in the foot or ankle. This procedure is done to prevent the spread of infection and promote healing.
Amputation is a surgical procedure that involves removing all or part of a limb. This procedure is usually done as a last resort to prevent the spread of infection or to relieve severe pain.
Nail trauma refers to injuries to the toenail or fingernail, which may involve surgical procedures such as removal of the nail or repair of the nail bed. This procedure is done to prevent infection and promote healing.
