Short term outcomes of total ankle replacements

R. Zaidi

1UCL, Stanmore, United Kingdom

Introduction: The National Joint Registry has been capturing data on ankle replacement surgery since April 2010. This currently represents the largest cohort of ankles replacements captured worldwide and is a valuable resource to give us short term outcome of ankle replacement surgery.

Methods: All the ankle replacements on the NJR were linked to the HES database using deterministic methods. The results were then anonymised. We then looked at Hopital admissions aftert he ankle replacement had taken place.

Results: There were just over 1600 ankles on the NJR and linking to HES gave 2065 records. 1437 of these were relavant to TAR. There were 12 malleolar fractures post-op and 6 DVT/PE which required readmission. there were 49 reoperations other than revision, 12 of which were ankle arthroscopies, and 14 removal of metalwork.

Conclusion: Ankle replacement is a effective procedure but does carry with it the risk of short term reoperation.
