Ankle Joint01:10

Ankle Joint

The ankle is formed by the talocrural joint (crural = leg). It consists of the articulations between the talus bone of the foot and the distal ends of the tibia and fibula of the leg. The superior aspect of the talus bone is square-shaped and has three areas of articulation. The top of the talus articulates with the inferior tibia. This is the portion of the ankle joint that carries the body weight between the leg and foot. The sides of the talus are firmly held in position by the articulations...
Knee Joint01:23

Knee Joint

The knee joint is the most complicated joint in the body. It consists of three articulations– two tibiofemoral and one patellofemoral. As is characteristic of synovial joints, the knee joint has a thin articular capsule that partially surrounds this joint cavity. Additionally, several ligaments, muscles, and cartilaginous structures support the movement of the knee.
A total of seven ligaments support the knee joint. The patellar ligament, which is also attached to the quadriceps femoris group...

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Biomechanics
  • Surgical Innovation

Context:

  • Coronal plane deformity is a significant risk factor for total ankle replacement (TAR) failure.
  • Malalignment exceeding 10° was initially a contraindication for TAR.
  • Recent studies highlight the importance of identifying hindfoot malalignment etiologies.

Purpose:

  • To detail the causes of varus malaligned arthritic ankles.
  • To present surgical techniques for balancing these ankles during TAR.

Summary:

  • Varus malalignment in arthritic ankles presents challenges for total ankle replacement.
  • Identifying the specific cause of malalignment is crucial for successful surgical outcomes.
  • Surgical balancing procedures can mitigate risks associated with coronal plane deformity in TAR.

Impact:

  • Improved surgical planning for total ankle replacement in malaligned ankles.
  • Reduced complication rates and enhanced implant survival.
  • Guidance for orthopedic surgeons on managing complex hindfoot deformities.
