BACKGROUND: Tibiotalocalcaneal (TTC) arthrodesis is a viable salvage option for failed total ankle arthroplasty (TAA), but it is typically a complex procedure associated with a high complication rate. This study analyzed outcomes of salvage TTC arthrodesis using a retrograde intramedullary (IM) nail without subtalar joint preparation after failed TAA.
METHODS: This study included 18 patients (18 ankles) who underwent TTC arthrodesis without subtalar joint preparation for failed TAA from July 2008 to March 2023 and were followed up for at least 2 years. Visual analog scale pain scores and Ankle Osteoarthritis Scale pain and disability scores were used to assess functional outcomes. Radiographic union, time to union, complications, and clinical success-defined as pain improvement without the need for revision surgery or amputation-were also evaluated.
RESULTS: The mean follow-up duration after TTC arthrodesis was 79.8 months (range, 26-199 months). Tibiotalar joint union was achieved in 13 ankles (72.2%) at a mean of 7.5 months after TTC arthrodesis. Subtalar joint union was achieved in 7 ankles (38.9%). All functional scores improved significantly from preoperatively to the last follow-up. The overall clinical success rate was 83.3% (15 ankles).
CONCLUSIONS: TTC arthrodesis using a retrograde IM nail without subtalar joint preparation produced favorable outcomes in patients with failed TAA. No complications associated with the subtalar joint were observed in any patient during follow-up. Therefore, TTC arthrodesis using a retrograde IM nail without subtalar joint preparation may be a considerable salvage option for failed TAA.
