Philippon Technique

The Philippon Technique is a surgical approach used to treat ankle joint problems, particularly addressing ankle pain and instability. It involves removing damaged tissue or bone spurs that cause irritation, restoring the smooth function of the joint. This minimally invasive method often uses arthroscopy—tiny cameras and instruments inserted through small incisions—allowing precise repair with less pain and quicker recovery. The goal is to eliminate pain sources and improve joint movement, helping patients return to normal activities efficiently.
