【 摘 要 】

Category:Ankle ArthritisIntroduction/Purpose:Total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) for ankle arthritis leads to a more normal gait pattern compared to ankle arthrodesis, prompting many to hypothesize that TAA slows development of adjacent joint arthrosis. However, following TAA, patients may also develop hindfoot pain, deformity and dysfunction, ultimately requiring arthrodesis procedures. Many patients with AA also have subtalar and/or talonavicular arthrosis. In these cases, simultaneous TAA and hindfoot arthrodesis may be performed. Previous studies have found that TAA in conjunction with hindfoot arthrodesis procedures led to inferior outcomes compared to isolated TAA. The purpose of this analysis was to compare the functional outcomes of simultaneous vs. subsequent hindfoot arthrodesis procedures and to describe the change, if any, in outcome scores following a subsequent hindfoot arthrodesis procedure.Methods:After receiving Institutional Review Board approval, the TAA database at our institution was revie...
