Abstract
Introduction: Launched in 2018 for revision total ankle arthroplasty (rTAA), the INVISION talar component addresses subsidence when poor talar bone stock is present. Due to the recency of the market-availability of the INVISION, studies evaluating its efficacy are lacking. This study presents the first analysis of early-term outcomes of patients undergoing rTAA with the INVISION talar component. Methods: This was a single-center, retrospective review of 28 patients undergoing rTAA with the INVISION talar component and INBONE II tibial component performed between 2018 and 2022. Data on preoperative characteristics, postoperative complications, secondary procedures, and survivorship were collected. The primary outcome measures were rates of major complications, re-operation, and implant failure. Secondary outcomes included post-operative changes in varus and valgus alignment of the tibia and talus. Results: The most common secondary procedures performed with rTAA were medial malleolus fixation (n = 22, 78.6%) and gastrocnemius recession (n = 14, 50%). Overall, 10.7% (n = 3) of patients underwent reoperation and 14.3% (n = 4) suffered major complications. Incidence of implant failure was 10.7% (n = 3). All reoperations were caused by infection. Mean varus alignment of the tibia and talus improved from 4.07 degrees and 4.83 degrees to 1.67 degrees and 1.23 degrees, respectively. Mean valgus alignment of the tibia and talus improved from 3.67 degrees and 4.22 degrees to 2.00 degrees and 2.32 degrees, respectively. Conclusions: In a series of 28 patients undergoing rTAA with the INVISION talar component, we discovered comparatively low rates of reoperation, major complication, and implant failure (10.7%, 14.3%, and 10.7%). The INVISION system appears to have a reasonable safety profile, but further studies evaluating long-term outcomes are required to assess the efficacy of the INVISION system.
