My father is having this done, in his situation it is due to degenerative Arthritis that cannot be helped by pain medication or any type of cortisone or gel injections. The ankle is basically "bone on bone." The pain is excruciating and to walk more than about 20 steps is unbearable. This is a relatively new surgery from what I have read and is not meted out lightly.
