Complications, Reoperations, and Healthcare Costs Following Total Ankle Arthroplasty vs Ankle Arthrodesis
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to compare the outcomes of total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) and ankle arthrodesis (AA) in terms of complications, reoperation rates, opioid utilization, and healthcare costs using a national administrative database. Their findings indicated that TAA had significantly lower reoperation rates and early complications, as well as lower cumulative costs over two years compared to AA, suggesting TAA as a more favorable treatment option for end-stage ankle arthritis.
