Ankle Arthrodesis Versus Total Ankle Arthroplasty.
Foot and Ankle Clinics 2017 June
Reoperation rates are higher in total ankle arthroplasties (TAAs) compared with ankle arthrodesis. Infection rates for primary TAAs are 1.4% to 2.4%. The survival rate of TAA is approximately 75% to 90% at 10 years. Arc of motion is maintained with TAAs compared with ankle arthrodesis. Ankle arthrodesis increases arc of motion through the talonavicular joint. Several factors are strong reasons to favor ankle fusion rather than TAA. TAA and ankle arthrodesis are effective treatments of end-stage ankle arthritis but the choice must be tailored to individual patients.
