Total ankle arthroplasty
Sung Ki-Sun

Abstract
For end-stage ankle arthritis, either arthrodesis or total ankle arthroplasty is a available surgical option. With the failure of earlier generation of arthroplasty, arthrodesis has been the gold standard. However, there are some considerable weaknesses of the arthrodesis. Current total ankle arthroplasty is presently an effective surgical treatment for endstage ankle arthritis with much improvement. The goals of surgery are to decrease pain, preserve range of motion, and eventually improve the patient¡¯s quality of life. Recent literatures on total ankle arthroplasty havs shown successful long-term clinical results due to the innovation of second-generation implants, including more anatomic concepts and designs. For successful outcomes, a thorough evaluation of the entire lower limb alignment, deformities of the foot and ankle, and proper selection of patients are very important. Nevertheless, complications, such as wound problems, osteolysis, gutter pain or impingement, infection, loosening, and others, may occur. In this review, we provide a summary of the current research on total ankle arthroplasty.
