Arthroscopic ankle arthrodesis provides similarly satisfactory surgical outcomes in ankles with severe deformity compared to mild deformity in elderly patients

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the surgical outcome in terms of radiographic measurements, functional outcomes, and complications following arthroscopic ankle arthrodesis (AAA) in patients 60 years of age or older, and to compare the results of patients with mildly deformed ankle with those of patients with severely deformed ankle.
