Reconstructive Foot & Ankle Surgery in Lake Travis & Lake Travis, TX
When foot and ankle conditions cause severe deformity, instability, or chronic pain that conservative treatment cannot adequately address, reconstructive surgery offers the opportunity for lasting restoration of function and quality of life. The surgeons at Elite Foot & Ankle Associates near Lake Travis, TX are trained in advanced reconstructive procedures designed to correct complex problems with precision and efficiency.
WHAT IS IT?
Reconstructive foot and ankle surgery involves procedures that restore normal anatomy, correct deformities, repair damaged structures, and relieve pain caused by chronic or complex conditions. It differs from routine foot surgery in its complexity and the degree of structural restoration involved.
COMMON CAUSES
- Advanced flatfoot deformity causing progressive pain and dysfunction
- Chronic ankle instability from multiple unhealed sprains
- Severe arthritis destroying joint surfaces
- Post-traumatic deformity from improperly healed fractures
- Charcot foot deformity in diabetic patients
- Congenital structural abnormalities affecting gait
SIGNS & SYMPTOMS
- Severe, activity-limiting pain despite conservative treatment
- Visible deformity of the foot or ankle
- Chronic instability — repeated ankle rolling or feeling of giving way
- Inability to walk normally due to structural collapse
- Pain at rest or with minimal weight-bearing
- Skin breakdown from abnormal pressure points
TREATMENT OPTIONS
- Flatfoot reconstruction (osteotomy, tendon transfer, joint fusion)
- Lateral ankle ligament reconstruction for chronic instability
- Total ankle replacement (TAR) — joint-preserving alternative to fusion
- Ankle arthrodesis (fusion) for end-stage arthritis
- Charcot foot reconstruction and offloading
