Challenges in total ankle arthroplasty.
In the past, total ankle arthroplasty was largely abandoned due to poor survivorship most often caused by loss of bone support. High complication rates were also reported. Despite this, there is renewed interest in ankle arthroplasty and encouraging results are seen in survivorship with midterm follow-up. The procedure, however, remains more challenging than total hip or total knee arthroplasty...
متن کاملIs total ankle arthroplasty a cost-effective alternative to ankle fusion?
BACKGROUND Total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) implantation is increasing, as the potential for pain relief and restoration of function and risks are compared with those for ankle fusion. A previous analysis with a simple decision tree suggested TAA was cost-effective compared with ankle fusion. However, reevaluation is warranted with the availability of newer, more costly implants and longer-term p...
متن کاملTotal Ankle Arthroplasty for the Treatment of Symptomatic Nonunion Following Tibiotalar Fusion.
UNLABELLED Background Nonunion of an ankle arthrodesis is associated with significant pain and morbidity. Revision arthrodesis presents greater short-term morbidity and long-term sequelae. 1-6 Recent reports have demonstrated the feasibility of converting a symptomatic nonunion of an ankle arthrodesis to a total ankle arthroplasty.7-9 The objective of the present study was to evaluate the short...
متن کاملCircular external fixator-assisted ankle arthrodesis following failed total ankle arthroplasty.
BACKGROUND Failed total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) often results in significant bone loss and requires salvage arthrodesis. This study quantified the bone loss following failed TAA and reports the outcome of seven arthrodesis reconstructions using the Ilizarov method. METHODS A retrospective review of ankle fusions was performed for failed TAA to collect the mode of implant failure, presenting ...
متن کاملHeterotopic ossification after total ankle arthroplasty.
We evaluated the incidence of heterotopic ossification following total ankle replacement to determine whether the degree of ossification was associated with the clinical outcome. We evaluated 90 ankles in 81 consecutive patients who underwent total ankle replacement, and heterotopic ossification was assessed according to proportional involvement of the ankle joint. Correlation analysis was used...
