Background

Management of failed total ankle replacements (TAR) remains a difficult challenge. Ankle arthrodesis, revision TAR, debridement and amputation are all utilized as surgical options. The purpose of the study was to review a series of failed TAR surgically managed in our tertiary referral centre.

Methods

A retrospective review of 18 consecutive failed TARs, either within or referred to our institution, which required surgical management were reviewed. The average age was 58.2 (range 25–77) with 11 males and 6 females.
