Abstract
The indications for ankle joint replacement and the advantages of a 'ball-and-socket' type of prosthesis are examined. The results of 24 Richard Smith ankle replacements of which 18 were followed for an average of 7 years are analysed and the case for abandoning this prosthesis is discussed.Entities:
