Abstract
A 65-year-old man with severe left talar avascular necrosis, arthritis, and chronic lateral ankle instability underwent total ankle total talus replacement (TATTR) with lateral ligament reconstruction. Tibial component placement was performed using preoperative computed tomography navigation and patient-specific guides. A custom, total talus replacement to mate with the fixed-bearing tibial component was implanted. Last, a modified Brostrom procedure was performed to restore lateral ankle stability. The patient has performed well through 1 year with improved pain-free function. This case report details a novel technique for performing a modified Brostrom procedure in conjunction with TATTR to restore lateral ankle stability.
