Background: Little is known about functional outcomes of ankle arthroplasty compared with
arthrodesis. This study compared pre-surgical and post-surgical gait measures in both …

Background: This study compared patients with isolated end-stage ankle osteoarthritis, after
undergoing either total ankle arthroplasty or arthrodesis, using gait analysis and patient …

Background End-stage ankle arthritis is a debilitating condition that often requires surgical
intervention after failed conservative treatments. Ankle arthrodesis is a common surgical …

Background: Prior studies reported improved gait after total ankle arthroplasty and better
parameters of gait than those reported in earlier studies of patients after ankle arthrodesis …

Background: In vivo gait analysis provides objective measurement of patient function and
can quantify that function before and after ankle reconstruction. Previous gait studies have …

Background Total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) is becoming an increasingly utilized procedure
for the management of end-stage ankle arthritis. Elderly patients are the fastest growing …

BACKGROUND: Little information is available about gait changes in ankle osteoarthritis and
total ankle replacement, and also about total ankle replacement patients' rehabilitation in the …

Background The aim of this systematic review with meta-analysis was to determine the
change in gait biomechanics after total ankle replacement and ankle arthrodesis for end …

Background: Ankle arthrodesis has historically been the standard of care for end-stage
ankle arthritis; however, total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) is considered a reliable alternative …

Background: There is a resurgence of popularity with regard to total ankle arthroplasty,
although there are limited data documenting the effect of total ankle arthroplasty on ankle …
