Results of Trabecular-Metal Total Ankle Arthroplasties With Transfibular Approach

Abstract: Background: Total ankle arthroplasty is an alternative for arthrodesis. The objective of this study was to investigate the safety of trabecular-metal ankle prosthetic system with transfibular approach and external frame and its association with changes in clinical and functional scores. Methods: Between May 2013 and June 2017, a total of 104 consecutive patients underwent primary total ankle arthroplasty with a trabecular metal implant. The prospective clinical and radiographic data were collected. The mean fo… Show more

“…Surgical technique and postoperative management are described in detail in a previous article presenting the clinical outcome and radiographic evaluation of the same series. 35 Preoperatively, 36 patients had a mean (SD) varus deformity of 14.3 (7.0) degrees. In those patients, immediately after the operation, varus deformity was corrected almost down to zero (mean [SD], 1.4 [3.5] degrees).…”

“…A newly designed porous Ta-based total ankle prosthesis was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 2012 and marketed by Zimmer Biomet Inc. [ 164 , 165 ]. Combined with the use of porous Ta-based ankle prosthesis in TAA, promising prognosis can be foreseeable in terms of pain relief and functional improvement in the short-term, even without supplementation with cement augmentation, due to the fact that the stability of tibial and talar components mainly depends on bony interlocking between the porous Ta base and the host bone [ 164 , 165 , 166 , 167 , 168 , 169 , 170 ]. Moreover, the pattern of porous Ta bases of the two components resembles that of the subchondral bone of tibia and talus and can distribute loading stress rationally and diminish the occurrence of peri-implant osteolysis, which often resulted in aseptic loosening of the implants [ 165 , 171 ].…”
