Does gender influence the outcomes of total ankle arthroplasty in patients with ankle osteoarthritis
Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research Jun 11, 2020
Lee GW, et al. - This study was attempted to assess outcomes, survivorship, and complications rates of total ankle arthroplasty, according to gender differences. Researchers recruited a total of 187 individuals (195 ankles) who had undergone mobile-bearing HINTEGRA prosthesis at a mean follow-up of 7.5 years (range, 4 to 14). Individuals were categorized into two groups, a men’s group (106 patients, 109 ankles) and a women’s group (81 patients, 86 ankles). Between men and women, clinical outcomes, complication rates, and survivorship of total ankle arthroplasty were comparable. These outcomes imply that gender did not appear to influence outcomes of total ankle arthroplasty in patients with ankle osteoarthritis.
