Background: Total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) offers an effective option for end-stage osteoarthritis. The incidence and preoperative risk factors for early adverse events (AEs) following primary and revision TAA may be useful information for providers.
Methods: A large database was queried from 2010 to 2016 to identify 905 patients of whom 818 underwent primary TAA (90.4%) and 87 underwent revision TAA (9.6%). Data on patient demographics, comorbidities, and hospital length of stay were analyzed as risk factors for reported 30-day AEs.
Results: The overall AE rate was 5.5% (50/905) for the entire cohort. AEs occurred more frequently for revision TAA (9/87) than primary TAA (41/818) cases (OR 2.43, p=0.022). Age (OR 1.03, p=0.045), BMI (OR 1.04, p=0.046), and revision TAA (OR 2.56, p=0.002) were independent risk factors for 30-day AEs in multivariate analysis.
Conclusions: Older age, higher BMI, and revision cases are associated with a higher risk of AEs.

Background: Total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) has been developed as treatment for disabling tibiotalar osteoarthritis. TAAs are divided into mobile- and fixed-bearings. The aim was to determine the incidence and trends of fixed- and mobile bearings over time and investigate the association of bearing type and risk of revision after primary TAA in the Netherlands.

Objective: Single-center studies have suggested that solid organ transplant recipients are at increased risk for arterial aneurysms. Moreover, they describe a more aggressive natural history with increased rates of expansion and rupture. In this exploratory analysis, we aim to assess the frequency of arterial aneurysms in solid organ transplant recipients using a large-scale national database.

The present research was performed to examine the possible capability of allopurinol to prevent developing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and to explore the fundamental mechanisms that control the hepatoprotective effect considering the enormous impact of HCC on patients' quality of life. Male Sprague Dawely rats were given i.p.

Background: This study systematically reviews the literature and reports on outcomes of total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) with the INBONE II fixed-bearing implant.
Methods: PubMed, SCOPUS and CINAHL were searched for clinical studies reporting INBONE II specific outcomes from database inception through July 13th, 2024, according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines.
Results: Seven primary TAA studies and 4 revision TAA studies were included with 406 and 114 patients respectively.

This study assesses the comorbidities that are associated with failed revision total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) and explores the outcomes following a failed revision TAA. A retrospective analysis was conducted on a cohort of patients who underwent a revision TAA at a single institution from 2008 to 2022. Patients were identified as having revision failure if they required explantation, below-knee amputation (BKA), or a revision of either metal component.
