The ceramic coated implant (CCI). Evolution total ankle replacements: a retrospective analysis of 40 ankles with 8 years follow-up.

Diminutive data is available on the outcome of several previously used total ankle replacement implants. The purpose of this study was to investigate the medium-term functional and radiological outcome and implant survival of the CCI Evolution implant. Consecutive series of 40 ankles operated in our hospital with primary TAR using the CCI Evolution implant in 2010-2013 were available for follow-up.

Low Rate of Peri-implant Osteolysis in Trabecular Metal Total Ankle Replacement on Short- to Midterm Follow-up.

Background: Peri-implant osteolysis is one of the major complications related to total ankle replacement. The aim of this study was to investigate the short- to midterm incidence of peri-implant osteolysis using computed tomography (CT) as imaging method for the Trabecular Metal Total Ankle (TMTA) implant representing a novel total ankle replacement (TAR) implant design regarding material and surgical technique.

Methods: In total, 104 consecutive patients who had a primary TMTA replacement between March 2013 and October 2017 were included in the study.

The motion between components in a mobile-bearing total ankle replacement measured by cone-beam CT scanning.

Background: To measure the motion of polyethylene insert and implant components of mobile-bearing total ankle replacement (TAR) by cone-beam CT scanning.

Methods: 10 TAR patients with high amount of clinical motion after the CCI implant (Ceramic Coated Implant; Wright Medical Technology, Arlington, TN, USA) with average age at operation 64,3 years (range 47-84) and average clinical total range of motion 42 degrees (range 35-55) were included.

Results: The average total range of motion between the insert and the tibial component was 0.

Results of Trabecular-Metal Total Ankle Arthroplasties With Transfibular Approach.

Background: Total ankle arthroplasty is an alternative for arthrodesis. The objective of this study was to investigate the safety of trabecular-metal ankle prosthetic system with transfibular approach and external frame and its association with changes in clinical and functional scores.

Methods: Between May 2013 and June 2017, a total of 104 consecutive patients underwent primary total ankle arthroplasty with a trabecular metal implant.

The Survey of Double Robertsonian Translocation 13q; 14q in the Pedigree of 44; XX Woman: A Case Report.

Robertsonian translocations (RBTs) are associated with an increased risk of aneuploidy. Single RBT carriers are the most common balanced rearrangements among the carrier couples with the history of spontaneous abortions. However, double Robertsonian translocations (DRBTs), in which two balanced RBTs occur simultaneously, are extremely rare conditions.
