Bensaka Mohammed in Journal of Clinical Case Reports, Medical Images and Health Sciences  Introduction: The ankle joint is a trochlear joint whose main characteristic is to be a load joint and therefore sensitive to the slightest anatomical anomaly. At a time when progress in orthopedics is due to prosthetic surgery in many joints (hip, knee, shoulder, etc.), the ankle continues to benefit from the classic arthrodesis technique, known since ALBERT in 1879 Thus, ankle arthrodesis is an operation intended to produce ankylosis of the talocrural joint, which remains a rescue intervention in joint destruction of the hindfoot, to be proposed only after having exhausted conservative options.
