Core Tip Purpose of this study is to evaluate arthrodesis as surgical treatment in patients with end-stage ankle osteoarthritis. The open procedure is compared with the arthroscopic procedure, evaluating the medium to long-term results through The American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle score, Freiburg Ankle score and visual analogue scale for pain intensity. Bone fusion timing is analyzed utilizing X-rays. The results suggest that both treatments are valid and safe, and that the arthroscopic procedure shows faster improvements in the medium term. It is also interesting to note that the group treated with arthroscopic procedure in the medium term control, has a shorter hospital stay and a better union rate.
