Walking in Weeks! Feels like Normal Ankle! Surprisingly Fast Recovery. Minimally Invasive

Total Talus Replacement surgery for AVN and ankle bone collapse – learn about the procedure, before & after results, and why recovery can be surprisingly fast. Discover real patient outcomes, rehabilitation timelines, and differences between primary and revision cases.

You might think replacing an entire ankle bone sounds like a major, complicated surgery — but Total Talus Replacement (TTR) is often less invasive than you imagine. In many primary AVN cases, the incision is only about 5 cm, and the surgery takes just 30–40 minutes.

In this video, I’ll show you what happens before and after TTR, and why recovery is surprisingly fast. Most patients start moving their ankle within 2–3 days and can walk in normal shoes by 6 weeks. Some are even walking without crutches as early as 1 week after surgery. Many return to hiking or light jogging within 3 months.

We’ll also discuss:
Why patients recover so quickly
What your ankle will feel like after surgery

For many patients, this surgery is life-changing — pain is gone, mobility improves, and everyday activities become possible again.

Watch to see how this surgery can give you your life back.
