Abstract EN
While ankle arthrodesis was traditionally the gold standard method of treatment for disabling end-stage ankle arthritis, total ankle replacement (TAR) has been an acceptable alternative.
The satisfaction rate of patients with TAR however differs.
The purpose of our study is to investigate whether implant survival and results with special emphasis on the satisfaction rate of patients treated with a TAR implanted by a single surgeon were comparable to the literature.
This was a retrospective cohort study in a teaching hospital.
Data was collected from 52 patients who received a total ankle replacement (TAR) between 05/2002 and 06/2014.
The mean follow-up time was 4.2 years (95% CI 3.3 – 5.0).
Results showed a high satisfaction rate of 94% and 94% survival of the TAR after 5 years.
We conclude that TAR with the Salto prosthesis is, in our hands, a reliable solution for end-stage ankle arthritis, with results comparable to the literature.
