    Compare improvements in self-reported pain and social interaction for quality of life measures from pre-op through 10 years post operatively; assessed by EuroQol (EQ5D5L).

    Compare pain and functional improvement in the Ankle Osteoarthritis Score (AOS), which is a visual analogue scale specifically designed as a modification of the Foot Function Index.

    Compare the improvement in self-reported pain-free function scores from pre-op through 10 years post-operatively, assessed by the Manchester Oxford Foot Questionnaire (MOXFQ) walking/standing scores.
