UNDERSTANDING ANKLE REPLACEMENT This brochure offers a brief overview of ankle anatomy, arthritis and ankle replacement. This information is for educational purposes only and is not intended to replace the expert guidance of your physician. Please direct any questions or concerns you may have to your doctor. 02 ANKLE ARTHRITIS YOUR ANKLE Your ankle is made up of a variety of bones, ligaments, tendons and cartilage that connect at the junction of your leg and foot. The joint works like a hinge and is responsible for moving your foot up and down. The tibia (shinbone), talus and fibula (smaller bone in the lower leg) are the bones that construct the ankle joint. Your ligaments border these bones on either side, holding them together to provide stability. Meanwhile the tendons connect the muscles to the bone and are responsible for the ankle and toe movements. Covering your bones is a smooth substance called cartilage, which acts as a cushion to reduce the friction between your bones as they move. If your cartilage wears down, arthritis can develop and cause loss of motion and pain. TIBIA FIBULA TALUS CALCANEUS METATARSAL V 03 ARTHRITIC ANKLE HEALTHY ANKLE Nearly half of individuals over the age of 60 have foot or ankle arthritis. 04 ARTHRITIS Nearly half of individuals over the age of 60 have foot or ankle arthritis that may not cause symptoms.1 However, for those suffering from ankle arthritis pain the most reported causes are:2 • Rheumatoid arthritis - It is an autoimmune disease that attacks multiple joints and typically starts in the hands and feet.

PAGE 2 Understanding Your Joints: How, when and why joint pain occurs Healthy joints aren’t just necessary for performing the physical activities we enjoy. They are the mechanical instruments that make virtually every movement possible. When our joints begin to succumb to years of natural wear and tear or degenerative conditions like arthritis, even the most common movements — like walking or climbing stairs — can become painful. Left untreated, joint pain can be potentially debilitating, severely diminishing one’s quality of life. New hope for joint pain Here’s the good news: it is possible to significantly reduce joint pain. Medical advancements in joint surgery have come a long way, particularly partial and total joint replacement.
