Total ankle replacement Complications Risk factors Patient selection
KEY POINTS
TARVA study shows no superiority between ankle arthrodesis and total ankle
replacement.
Defining complication is necessary to have accurate registration of complications.
Complications with highest reported pooled incidence were intraoperative fracture 6%
(95% CI 4%–8%) (GRADE very low) and impingement 6% (95% CI 4%–8%) (GRADE
low), respectively.
The risk of complications is much higher during the learning curve of a total ankle
replacement.
Lucency or cyst formation around the talar component was observed more frequently in
mobile-bearing total ankle replacements.
