Togay Koç / 07 June 2023 / Categories: Abstracts, 2023, Podium Management of failed total ankle replacement and massive bone cysts using impaction bone grafting and the invision total ankle replacement system C. Gordon, M. Raglan, S. Dhar, K. Lee Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the outcomes of revision ankle replacements, using the Invision implant and impaction allograft for massive talar dome defects following primary ankle replacement failure. Outcomes were assessed in terms of bone graft incorporation; improvement in patient reported outcome measures (PROMs); and survivorship of the revision ankle arthroplasty. Methods: A retrospective review of prospectively collected data identified eleven patients who had massive bone cysts and underwent revision of a failed primary total ankle replacement to the Invision revision system, combined with impaction grafting using morselized femoral head allograft. These revisions occurred at a single high volume ankle arthroplasty centre. Computed tomography (CT) scans were used to assess bone graft incorporation and the Manchester-Oxford Foot Questionnaire (MOXFQ) and EQ-5D scores were used pre and post operatively to assess PROMs. Results: The mean follow up was 18 months (12-48months). In all eleven patients, improvement was reported in the post-operative MOXFQ and EQ-5D scores. CT scans showed bone graft incorporation in all cases. None of the patients have required further surgery and are continue to do well clinically at latest follow up. Conclusions: In the short term, this study confirms revision ankle replacements with the Invision prosthesis and impaction with morselized femoral head allograft is a suitable revision option for primary ankle replacement failure with massive talar bone loss. Long term follow up continues of these complex patients.
