Abstract
Background: Short-term outcomes for the INBONE I and INBONE II tibial stems have been favorable. The INBONE-II talus has been shown to have lower reoperation and failure rates compared to its predecessor at short term follow-up. The purpose of the present study was to assess mid-term outcomes for the third generation, two component total ankle prosthesis at 5 to 9 years follow-up, evaluating both the tibial and talar components. Methods: All patients who underwent primary total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) with INBONE-II between July 2010 and July 2014 at a single institution and who were at least 5 years postoperative were included. A total of 15 ankles with a mean follow-up of 85 months (range, 61-113 months) met the criteria. Radiographs were assessed using coronal and sagittal alignment parameters preoperatively, at 6 weeks postoperatively, and at the most recent follow-up. Medical records were reviewed and revisions, reoperations, and complications were classified according to the criteria established by Vander Griend et al and Glazebrook et al, respectively. Results: The survivorship of the prosthesis at a mean of 85 months was 93.7%. The coronal and sagittal tibiotalar alignments 6 weeks after surgery were 2.1 degrees ( P = .081) and 36% ( P = .15), respectively. Maintenance of this alignment was observed during the latest follow-up ( P = .684 and P = .837, respectively). One ankle (6.7%) required early component revision, while 4 (26.7%) required a non–implant-related revision. Six complications (2 high grade, 1 intermediate, and 3 low) in 5 ankles (33.3%) were recorded according to the Glazebrook classification system. Conclusion: The present study is the first to report midterm follow-up after TAA with this third-generation, 2-component prothesis. High survivorship, maintenance of correction, and a low incidence of major complications were observed in this small case series. The most common complication overall was lateral gutter impingement, which accounted for the majority of the nonrevisional reoperations. Level of Evidence: Level IV, case series.
