Procedure

Arthroscopic ankle fusion has many proven benefits when compared to open fusion techniques. Arthrex's comprehensive product line provides surgeons with all the necessary tools for safe and effective arthroscopic fusion of the ankle joint.
The ankle arthroscopy set includes multiple curettes and osteotomes to facilitate preparation of arthritic joints. The PoweRasp™ and PowerPick™ devices allow for simple cartilage removal and marrow stimulation at the distal tibia and talus.
After appropriate preparation of the fusion site, surgeons can use the GPS Targeting System to pinpoint placement of K-wires. Once the K-wires are in place, fusion can be achieved using the Arthrex 7.0 mm Compression FT Screws.

The GPS Targeting Drill Guide, which was developed to complement the Ankle Arthroscopy Instrument Set, enables precise placement of K-wires for ankle arthrodesis and a multitude of other applications. Additionally, the drill guide can be used for effective retrograde drilling of osteochondral lesions.
The guide's sturdy but lightweight aluminum frame allows for precise rotation and telescoping, enabling pinpoint placement of 1.1 mm, 1.6 mm, and 2.4 mm K-wires. A multitude of drill patterns can be achieved using either the single or quad bore guide sleeves for the 1.1 mm and 1.6 mm K-wires. Finally, hard-to-reach areas in the curved talus are easily positioned using either the straight indicator tip or the curved talar dome indicator.
