Data Driven Results Support TAA
In their concise JBJS December 2023 report, "Two to Five-Year Outcomes of Total Ankle Arthroplasty with the Infinity Fixed-Bearing Implant," Townsend et al. published a complex data set.
98.2% Survivorship in Infinity Fixed Bearing TAR
503 Infinity (Stryker) TAA implants were reported on as part of a multicenter, non-designer, prospective observational study (level II). The two-year survivorship was 98.8% and the non-revision reoperation rate was 2.8%. There was significant improvement across all functional outcome scores from baseline.
It’s a Big Deal
This study is the largest report to date on the prospective collection of outcome data on fixed-bearing TAA.
