Computed Navigation Guidance for Ankle Replacement in the Setting of Ankle Deformity

Feras J Waly et al. Clin Podiatr Med Surg. 2018 Jan.

Abstract

Total ankle replacement (TAR) has evolved over the past decade as a treatment for end-stage ankle arthritis with improved survivorship. Despite the improving outcomes, ankle deformity represents a challenge to the foot and ankle surgeon with increased risk of implant failure. The use of preoperative computer-assisted guidance has led to better understanding the 3-dimensional ankle anatomy and associated deformities and allows for reproducible, anatomic placement of the TAR components.
