Summary

Ankle osteoarthritis (AOA) is a typical long-term complication of an ankle injury. Pain during walking is the main symptom that limits walking distance. Non-surgical treatments could be used to decrease pain. The gold standard treatment for end-stage OA is definitive surgical ankle arthrodesis.

The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of a rigid ankle-foot orthosis (R-AFO) for walking pain in a population suffering from AOA.
