This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether a personalized ankle replacement prosthetic—one custom-designed to match your individual ankle shape—works better than a standard prosthetic that is the same for everyone. Researchers will compare how well each approach works by looking at X-ray results, how you feel after surgery, and the overall cost of treatment.
Ankle replacement surgery is a major procedure, and doctors want to know if taking extra time to create a prosthetic that perfectly matches your unique ankle anatomy leads to better results and faster recovery compared to using a standard prosthetic for everyone.

If you enroll, you will be randomly assigned to receive either standard or custom ankle replacement surgery. Before surgery, you'll have imaging scans (for the custom group, these are used to design your personalized prosthetic). After surgery, you'll attend follow-up visits where doctors will check your X-rays, ask how you're doing, and assess your recovery. The study will track your results over time to compare how well each approach works.
