Joint-preserving surgery of ankle osteoarthritis.
Introduction: The most common cause of ankle osteoarthritis (OA) is posttraumatic, with around 80% of all cases, followed by primary and secondary ankle OA. Patients often present wit asymmetric involvement of the tibiotalar joint, resulting in valgus or varus deformity of the ankle and hindfoot. The etiology of asymmetric arthritic ankles can be divided into 2 main etiologic and morphologic gr...
متن کاملSalvage Surgery and Ankle Arthrodesis in Ankle Fractures Involving the Joint
Posttraumatic osteoarthritis is a serious complication mostly involving weight bearing joints. It is not yet possible to predict which patients would develop posttraumatic osteoarthritis at a clinically relevant level. It is a common notion that, in comminuted fractures of the ankle joint that are highly likely to result in posttraumatic arthritis, interventions that aim to reduce the developme...
متن کاملStresses in the ankle joint and total ankle replacement design.
The ankle is a highly congruent joint with a surface area of 11-13 cm(2). Total ankle replacements have been attempted since the early 1970s and design has continually evolved as the early designs were a failure. This was because the stresses involved and the mutiaxial motion of the ankle has not been understood until recently. It has been shown that the talus slides as well as rolls during the...
متن کاملEffect of post-traumatic tibiotalar osteoarthritis on kinematics of the ankle joint complex.
BACKGROUND Knowledge of joint kinematics in the healthy and diseased joint may be useful if surgical techniques and joint replacement designs are to be improved. To date, little is known about the kinematics of the arthritic tibiotalar joint and its effect on the kinematics of the subtalar joint. MATERIALS AND METHODS Kinematics of the ankle joint complex (AJC) were measured in six patients w...
متن کاملConversion of Tibiotalar Arthrodesis to Total Ankle Arthroplasty.
BACKGROUND Conversion of ankle arthrodesis to total ankle arthroplasty remains controversial. Although satisfactory outcomes have been published, not all foot and ankle surgeons performing total ankle arthroplasty have embraced this modality. METHODS Twenty-three total ankle arthroplasties were performed in patients who had undergone a prior or an attempted ankle arthrodesis. The mean age at ...
