• W2890187684 abstract "Category: Basic Sciences/Biologics Introduction/Purpose: Ankle arthroplasties are increasingly performed to address ankle arthritis. Patients with long standing ankle arthritis often present with an associated achilles tendon contracture. An open or percutaneous lengthening of the Achilles is commonly performed at the same time as the ankle arthroplasty to improve range of motion. Current ankle arthroplasty implants include mobile bearing and fixed bearing systems. Lengthening the achilles tendon improves dorsiflexion, however the effect of the lengthening on the ankle and subtalar joint is not well documented in the literature. Using a novel system to simulate weight bearing in a cadaveric model, we evaluated achilles tendon lengthening and its effect on ankle and subtalar joint orientation and load distribution. This may have potential implications to polyethylene implant longevity in total ankle arthroplasties. Methods: Five fresh frozen lower limb cadaveric specimens without known skeletal condition were used. The femoral head was potted with PMMA and TekScan pressure sensors were inserted into the ankle and subtalar joint. The specimens were placed on a custom jig, which allowed for load cell modulated loading of the leg; 75 lb load (half body weight)(4) was applied at the femoral head while the foot was supported against a fixed plate keeping the ankle in neutral position. Mean pressure (MP), peak pressure (PP), contact area (CA), and center of force (COF) were measured in both joints under two conditions; baseline (BASE), and following Achilles tendon release (TENDON) to simulate lengthening. Each condition was tested three times per specimen; the results were averaged per specimen and used for final analysis. Displacement of COF was calculated relative to its location at baseline. Results: The Mean Pressure (MP), Peak Pressure (PP) and Contact Area (CA) did not show a statistical difference in the ankle and subtalar joints between baseline (BASE) and TENDON (Achilles tendon release) conditions. (Table 1). Further, the displacement of the COF from the BASE to TENDON was 0.5 mm. In our model, the contracture of the muscle was not fully simulated. Further hindfoot kinetic studies with active achilles contracture may demonstrate a difference in contact forces in the ankle and subtalar joint as compared to normal. Conclusion: Ankle arthroplasty is becoming an effective treatment option for ankle joint arthritis. Our novel study demonstrates that Achilles tendon lengthening did not change the mean pressure, peak pressure, contact area center of force in the ankle and subtalar joint. This model provides validation for further studies evaluating tendon release and contact pressure changes in a cadaver with an implanted fixed bearing versus mobile bearing total ankle prosthesis. Difference in polyethylene wear may effect the longevity of ankle replacements. This study will provide clinicians additional information when evaluating the benefit/risks associated with lengthening the Achilles tendon for ankle arthroplasty patients." @default.
