Salto Talaris Fixed-Bearing Total Ankle Arthroplasty : Long-Term Results at a Mean of 10.7 Years

© The Author(s) 2024..

Background: Total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) has become increasingly popular in the treatment for end-stage ankle arthritis in recent decades. However, there is limited evidence regarding the long-term clinical outcomes and complication rates of modern TAA implants.

Methods: This study presents a follow-up on a previous cohort involving 78 patients (81 ankles) who underwent Salto Talaris fixed-bearing TAA to treat end-stage arthritis, with a mean postoperative follow-up of 5.2 years. The aim of this follow-up study was to assess the radiographic (33 patients, 35 ankles) and clinical (48 patients, 50 ankles) results from the original cohort at a mean of 10.7 years (range, 7.8-14 years).

Results: At a mean of 10.7 years, the Kaplan-Meier estimated survivorship was 84.2% (95% CI, 71.9%-98.6%). For the patients reviewed, we did not find any change in patient-reported outcomes between an average 5- and 11-year follow-up. Measured total range of motion and plantarflexion did not change between 1 and 11 years, but dorsiflexion was measured as decreasing by an average of 4 degrees (P < .02).

Conclusion: In this longer-term follow-up of a limited cohort, we found that Salto Talaris fixed-bearing TAA demonstrated good long-term survival with relatively low rates of revision or other complications. Patient-reported outcome and range of motion measures revealed good stability.

Level of Evidence: Level III, therapeutic.
