The surgical management of ankle arthritis with tibiotalar arthrodesis
is known to alter gait, as compared with normal ankles. The purpose
of this study was to assess post-operative gait function with gait
before arthrodesis. We prospectively studied 20 patients who underwent three-dimensional
gait analysis before and after tibiotalar arthrodesis. Cadence,
step length, walking velocity and total support time were assessed.
Kinetic parameters, including the moment and power of the ankle
in the sagittal plane and hip power were also recorded.Aims
