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...

Temporary cementation using a bone graft substitute offers a stable solution for total ankle replacement in patients with poor bone quality. This technique enhances implant fixation in fragile bone, improving outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Biomaterials science

Background:

  • Total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) presents challenges in patients with compromised bone quality.
  • Achieving a stable implant-bone interface is crucial for TAA success, especially in osteoporotic or otherwise fragile bone.

Observation:

  • A temporary cementation technique, termed "biocementation," was employed in 9 ankles (7 patients) undergoing TAA.
  • This technique utilized a slowly resorbable injectable bone graft substitute comprising 75% calcium sulfate and 25% calcium phosphate.

Findings:

  • The biocementation technique facilitated a stable and secure interface between the TAA implant and the native bone.
  • Short-term results indicate successful application of this method in managing poor bone quality during TAA.

Implications:

  • Biocementation may represent a valuable adjunct for surgeons performing TAA in patients with bone fragility.
  • Further research into long-term outcomes and broader applications of this technique is warranted.
