Effects of Patient-Specific Instrumentation and Ancillary Surgery Performed in Conjunction With Total Ankle Implant Arthroplasty: Postoperative Radiographic Findings

Total ankle replacement for treatment of complex congenital fibular hemimelia

“…There is, however, a lack of documentation for procedural techniques and outcomes in the setting of ankle-driven pathology with fibular deformity (9.10). Moreover, indications for total ankle arthroplasty continue to expand, with the ability to correct large deformity through implantation, or with ancillary procedures performed in conjunction with implantation (11,12). With improved technology and biomechanical advancements in total ankle joint arthroplasty, this procedure can be an efficous in the treatment of ankle-driven deformity and arthritis even in the setting of FH, with fibular, distal tibial and foot deformities.…”

A Novel Orthoplastic Reconstruction of Relapsed Clubfoot With Total Ankle Arthroplasty

“…Historically, TAA has been associated with worse outcomes and increased complications compared to AA [26,27]. Importantly, recent generations of TAA prostheses have shown significantly improved results due to improved operative planning, patient-individualized implant design, and auxiliary balancing procedures [26,[28][29][30][31][32]. TAA also preserves the natural biomechanics of gait in the limb, which can be more appealing for patients who wish to remain physically active or those with higher functional demands [33].…”
