Blade Plate With Autogenous Bone Grafting to Salvage Peri Ankle Nonunions.
Background: Salvage surgery for a nonunion around the ankle is challenging. Poor bone stock, stiffness, scarring, previous (or persistent) infection, and a compromised soft tissue envelope are common in these patients. We describe 15 cases that underwent blade plate fixation as salvage for a nonunion around the ankle, including patient/nonunion characteristics, Nonunion Scoring System (NUSS), surgical technique, healing rate, complications, and long-term follow-up with 2 patient-reported outcome measures.
Methods: This is a retrospective case series from a level 1 trauma referral center. We included all patients that underwent blade plate fixation for a long-standing nonunion of the distal tibia, talus, or failed subtalar fusion. All patients had autogenous bone grafting, including 14 with posterior iliac crest grafts and 2 with femoral reamer irrigator aspirator grafting. Median follow-up was 24.4 months (interquartile range [IQR], 7.7-40). Main outcome measures were (time to) union, and functional outcomes using the 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary (MCS), and the Foot and Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS).
Results: We included 15 adults with a median age of 58 years (IQR, 54-62). The median NUSS score at the time of index surgery was 46 (IQR, 34-54). Union was achieved after the index procedure in 11 of 15 patients. Additional surgery was performed in 4 of 15 patients. Union was achieved in all patients at a median of 4.2 months (IQR, 2.9-11). The median score for the PCS was 38 (IQR, 34-48, range 17-58, P = .009), for the MCS 52 (IQR, 45-60, range 33-62, P = .701), and for the FAOS 73 (IQR, 48-83).
Conclusion: In this series, our use of blade plate fixation with autogenous grafting was an effective method for managing a nonunion around the ankle allowing for alignment correction, stable compression and fixation, union, and fair patient-reported outcome scores.
期刊介绍:
Foot & Ankle International (FAI), in publication since 1980, is the official journal of the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS). This monthly medical journal emphasizes surgical and medical management as it relates to the foot and ankle with a specific focus on reconstructive, trauma, and sports-related conditions utilizing the latest technological advances. FAI offers original, clinically oriented, peer-reviewed research articles presenting new approaches to foot and ankle pathology and treatment, current case reviews, and technique tips addressing the management of complex problems. This journal is an ideal resource for highly-trained orthopaedic foot and ankle specialists and allied health care providers.
The journal’s Founding Editor, Melvin H. Jahss, MD (deceased), served from 1980-1988. He was followed by Kenneth A. Johnson, MD (deceased) from 1988-1993; Lowell D. Lutter, MD (deceased) from 1993-2004; and E. Greer Richardson, MD from 2005-2007. David B. Thordarson, MD, assumed the role of Editor-in-Chief in 2008.
The journal focuses on the following areas of interest:
• Surgery
• Wound care
• Bone healing
• Pain management
• In-office orthotic systems
• Diabetes
• Sports medicine
