Abstract
A total ankle arthroplasty (IAA) design is presented for highly selected cases. The design stems from investigations on the anatomical and biomechanical characteristics of the human ankle joint. The prostheses are inserted through an anterior approach. Full weight-bearing is well tolerated within a few days. The immediate results on 20 ankles are most encouraging.Entities:
