Abstract

Between 1996 and 1999, we performed successful revision ankle arthrodesis for aseptic nonunion in 10 patients using external fixation with bone graft and an implantable bone stimulator.

Complications occurred in two patients: one had a pin tract infection which resolved with local pin care and oral antibiotics; the second patient had a varus malalignment which was accommodated with orthotics. This patient also had a deep peroneal nerve neuropraxia which resolved with observation. We evaluated all 10 patients with clinical and radiographic examination, and determined their functional results for a duration of follow-up of 15 months (range, six to 36 months). Using a modification of the AOFAS ankle/hindfoot scoring system, the results were: three excellent, four good, two fair, and one poor. All but one of these patients were satisfied with the outcome of th...Continue Reading
