Ankle ORIF Surgery Experts Pune
Sancheti Hospital offers ankle ORIF surgery to fix complex fractures, restore alignment, and promote complete recovery with advanced orthopedic care.
What is Ankle ORIF
Open Reduction and Internal Fixation (ORIF) is a surgical procedure performed to treat severe ankle fractures where the bones are misaligned or unstable. During ORIF ankle surgery, the surgeon repositions the fractured bone fragments (open reduction) and stabilizes them with plates, screws, or rods (internal fixation). This ensures proper alignment and healing of the ankle joint.
Ankle fractures can result from high-impact injuries, accidents, or sports-related trauma. While minor fractures may heal with casting or splints, unstable fractures often require ORIF for long-term stability and function.
Benefits of ORIF Ankle Surgery
- Restores normal alignment of the ankle joint
- Provides stable fixation, reducing the risk of improper healing
- Improves mobility and weight-bearing ability over time
- Prevents long-term complications such as arthritis and deformity
- Allows for faster recovery compared to conservative treatments for severe fractures
Limitations and Disadvantages
Like all surgeries, ORIF has certain risks. Possible complications include infection, stiffness, hardware irritation, or delayed healing. Patients may also require physical therapy to regain full function. Recovery can take several weeks, and in some cases, hardware removal may be necessary later. However, with expert surgical care and rehabilitation, these risks are significantly reduced.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is ankle ORIF surgery required?
It is recommended when ankle fractures are unstable, displaced, or cannot be treated with casting or splints alone.
What is the recovery time after ORIF ankle surgery?
Initial recovery takes about 6–8 weeks, but complete rehabilitation may take up to 3–6 months, depending on the severity of the fracture.
Is ORIF ankle surgery painful?
Pain is expected initially but is well-managed with medication. Physiotherapy further helps reduce discomfort and restore movement.
What is the ORIF ankle surgery cost at Sancheti Hospital?
The cost varies depending on the complexity of the fracture, type of implants used, and length of hospital stay. Our team provides clear cost estimates before the procedure.
Can the metal plates and screws cause problems later?
In most cases, implants remain in place without issues. Rarely, if they cause discomfort, they can be removed after complete bone healing.
When can I start walking after ankle ORIF?
Patients usually begin partial weight-bearing with support after a few weeks, progressing to full weight-bearing once the surgeon confirms proper healing.
Are there long-term risks after ankle ORIF?
Most patients regain normal ankle function. Rarely, stiffness, swelling, or post-traumatic arthritis may develop, which can be managed with physiotherapy and follow-up care.
