Abstract
In the age of arthroplasty, tibio-talar arthrodesis remains a treatment option of choice for major ankle destruction. Arthroscopy, by limiting soft tissue invasion, reduces complications with similar or even better efficacy than open techniques. Arthroscopic tibiotalar arthrodesis is an elegant, reliable, les iatrogenic method suitable for all indications of ankle arthrodesis except those with large deformities or loss of bone substance. However, this technique remains difficult and requires a significant learning curve.
