Ankle Joint

Detect Early, Treat Effectively.

The ankle joint is prone to injuries such as ligament tears, osteoarthritis, or overuse. Common symptoms include pain, swelling, and restricted mobility. Conservative measures such as physiotherapy or bracing are often effective, while in severe cases, surgery may be required.

Challenges of the Ankle Joint

The ankle joint is a highly stressed structure, especially in physically active individuals. The boom in leisure and fitness activities has led to an increase in injuries, many of which can result in joint osteoarthritis. Common complaints include pain while walking, restricted movement, and the inability to participate in sports.

Modern Solutions for Ankle Osteoarthritis

In the past, joint fusion was often the only option for severe osteoarthritis, but this procedure involved long recovery times and placed strain on neighbouring joints. Today, patients with osteoarthritis or rheumatism benefit from innovative new treatment options.

The TARIC© Prosthesis – A Pioneering Development

Dr. Stephan Schill, together with leading orthopaedists such as Prof. Dr. Stefan Rehart and Prof. Dr. Bernd Fink, developed the innovative TARIC© prosthesis. This three-part prosthesis offers a gentle alternative to joint fusion:

Metal caps protect the talus and lower leg bones
Polyethylene core ensures mobility and durability
Patients benefit from improved movement and shorter recovery times
