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 : an irish surgeon is planning a prosthesis revision surgery for one of his patients.At the 9 months follow-up, the control ct scan shows a tilted tibial component and a dislocated insert.The patient is asymptomatic.The patient previously had an arthrodesis of the talus navicular and first cuneiform bone.The revision has not been performed yet (no planned date communicated), but the surgeon plans to revise the tibial component with a bone recut to correct the slope and cementing of the new tibial implant.The insert will also be changed but no revision of the talar component.Additonal information are to be collected and investigations are in progress.
