Event Description
|
The quantum® total ankle prosthesis is indicated as a total ankle replacement in primary or revision surgery for patients with ankle joints damaged by severe rheumatoid, post-traumatic, or degenerative arthritis.The quantum® total ankle prosthesis is a fixed-bearing, semi-constraint ankle prothesis with 2 components and composed of: a tibial component composed of a metallic (ta6v) tibial tray implant fixed to a polymer (uhwmpe) insert; a metallic (cocr) talar implant reproducing the talus dome anatomy.When all components are implanted, with the insert rigidly locked to the tibial tray, the polyethylene insert acts as a single bearing along the talar dome, enabling flexion/extension and rotation movement at the replaced ankle joint.Each component of the quantum® total ankle prosthesis exists in different sizes and models.Event description : initial information reported by the surgeon on (b)(6) 2022: the patient was reviewed at his/her 4 months postoperative follow-up.A tilt of the tibial component of the quantum prosthesis was identified in regards to the immediate postoperative results, creating a varus angle (displacement of the tibial component placement between the immediate results and the 4 months results).However, and as reported by the initiator, the patient functional results and pain levels were deemed acceptable.Additional information reported by the surgeon on december 12th, 2022: the patient was reviewed 3 times between (b)(6) and (b)(6) and has an aggravation of his/her pain level despite an infiltration.
