The German version of the FFI is a reliable and valid questionnaire for the self-assessment of pain and disability in German-speaking patients with foot complaints.

The short-term clinical and radiographic results after Mobility total ankle arthroplasty are encouraging and are at least comparable with those associated with other modern three-component implants. The minimum duration of follow-up of one year is short, and studies with longer follow-up are needed to confirm our findings.

The number of studies reporting on outcomes after total ankle arthroplasty is continuously increasing. As

Two-thirds of the patients were active in sports after total ankle arthroplasty, and the majority of the patients met current health-enhancing physical activity recommendations. The clinical outcome as determined by AOFAS scores and the patient satisfaction were favorable. The present study found no association between sports participation, increased physical activity levels, and the appearance of periprosthetic radiolucencies 3.7 years after total ankle arthroplasty. However, these results have to be confirmed after longer follow-up, in particular of those patients regularly participating in sports with higher impact.
