| Description | The knowledge of anatomy, biology, kinematics, and the biomechanics of the ankle joint are the necessary prerequisites both for the construction of an ankle prosthesis and for the surgical technique of its insertion. When the anatomy is distorted, it must be restored to near-normal anatomy and alignment during surgery. The ligament apparatus has to be balanced or repaired, if deficient. The prosthesis should allow for a normal range of motion and it should also respect the normal axis of rotation and allow torque of the talus inside the ankle fork. A complex surgical technique is necessary to provide for such conditions. In case of complications, there should be alternative treatments, preferably revision of the prosthesis. |
