1 FOOT AND ANKLE after total ankle arthroplasty W. J. Choi, J. W. Lee From Yonsei University College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea We evaluated the incidence of heterotopic ossification following total ankle replacement to determine whether the degree of ossification was associated with the clinical outcome. We evaluated 90 ankles in 81 consecutive patients who underwent total ankle replacement, and heterotopic ossification was assessed according to proportional involvement of the ankle joint. Correlation analysis was used to investigate the association between heterotopic ossification and outcome. No significant association was found between the formation of heterotopic ossification and the clinical outcome. The degree of heterotopic ossification in the posterior ankle joint was not significantly correlated with posterior ankle pain (p = 0.929), the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society score (p = 0.454) or range of movement (p = 0.283). This study indicates that caution should be observed in attributing symptoms and functional limitation to the presence of heterotopic ossification in the posterior ankle joint when considering excision of heterotopic bone after total ankle replacement.

Two common radiological findings at follow-up are osteolysis and heterotopic bone formation, which may be implicated as possible aetiological factors. Although osteolysis is a significant problem after TAR, 8-11 the natural history and clinical significance of the heterotopic ossification that develops after TAR have not been fully investigated. The goal of our study was to review pre- and post-operative radiographs to assess the incidence and aetiology of heterotopic ossification after TAR and its association with the outcome. We hypothesised that there would be no relationship between the formation of heterotopic ossification and outcome. Patients and Methods A total of 112 ankles in 103 patients who underwent TAR by a single surgeon (JWL) between 2004 and 2009 were retrospectively assessed. A total of 22 ankles were excluded because the follow-up was less than 24 months, leaving 90 ankles in 81 patients with a mean clinical and radiological followup of 44.8 months (24 to 77) for analysis. The HINTEGRA (Newdeal SA, Lyon, France) total ankle system was used in all patients. The mean age of the patients was 64 years (33 to 84). A total of 48 TARs were undertaken in men and 42 in women; three men and six women underwent bilateral TAR (Table I). The operation was performed for osteoarthritis in 35 ankles, traumatic arthritis in 46 and rheumatoid arthritis in nine. The study was approved by the hospital s institutional review board. Operative technique. The technique of TAR has been previously described. 10 A tourniquet around the thigh was used in each case and was inflated to 320 mmhg and deflated before closure to ensure adequate haemostasis. Bone cutting guides were used to prepare the tibia and talus. Care was taken to remove any loose bone fragments, followed by copious irrigation to remove any debris. In order to restore neutral alignment and correct ligament instability or bony deformity, various additional procedures were performed according to the treatment algorithms of our institution: 10 deltoid ligament release in 44 ankles, percutaneous Achilles tendon triple hemisection lengthening 12 in 29, calcaneal valgus osteotomy in six, peroneus longus tendon transfer to peroneus brevis in six, gastrocnemius recession in six, modified Broström procedure 13 in five, dorsiflexion osteotomy of the first metatarsal bone in four, 1508 THE JOURNAL OF BONE AND JOINT SURGERY

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) were not routinely prescribed post-operatively and their use was not monitored in the outpatient setting. In uncomplicated cases a short-leg cast was applied for four weeks. When additional procedures had been required a short-leg cast was applied for a maximum of six weeks. The patients were allowed to gradually return to full weightbearing and pre-operative activities as tolerated. Clinical evaluation. Clinical assessment included the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) anklehindfoot score. 14 Pain was graded according to a visual analogue scale (VAS: 0, no pain; 10, maximum pain). The active range of dorsiflexion and plantar flexion was recorded in degrees. The relationship between the incidence of post-operative heterotopic ossification and possible causative factors, including age, body weight, body mass index (BMI), diagnosis and the Takakura classification 15 of arthritis of the ankle, the pre-operative presence of osteophytes posteriorly in the ankle joint, peri-operative release of medial ligaments, and pre-operative serum calcium and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels, was also investigated. The mean duration of surgery was also recorded based on the tourniquet time. Radiological evaluation. Standardised weight-bearing anteroposterior and lateral radiographs obtained by tangential fluoroscopy were taken post-operatively at six weeks, three months, six months, one year and two years. was graded based on the filling of the space between the inferior border of the tibial component and the superior border of the posterior talar process as described in Table II. The appropriateness of tibial component sizing in relation to the prepared tibia was assessed by the distance between the posterior edge of the tibial component and the posterior cortex of the distal tibia, as measured on a lateral radiograph. When the component was smaller than the cut surface of the tibia, the distance was recorded as a negative number. In order to assess the relationship between the incidence of heterotopic ossification and tibial component cover, the relationship between the size of the tibial component and the tibial cut surface was stratified as small (< -2 mm), optimal (-2 mm to 2 mm), and large (> 2 mm). Statistical analysis. Categorical variables were compared using the chi-squared test, and continuous variables were compared using a Mann-Whitney U test. Correlations between the extent of heterotopic ossification and the clinical outcome were determined using Spearman s correlation coefficient. A p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Data were analysed using the software package SPSS for Windows version 18.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, Illinois). Results Of the 90 ankles, 31 (34.4%) showed radiological evidence of heterotopic ossification, comprising grade 1 in eight ankles, grade 2 in 14, grade 3 in eight and grade 4 in one (Fig. 1). The ossification was always located posterior to the tibial component and was first indentified postoperatively at three months in eight ankles, six months in nine, one year in 13 and two years in one. When early postoperative radiographs were compared with those obtained at least two years later, the grade had increased in seven ankles. There was no significant difference in the mean duration of follow-up in patients with and without heterotopic ossification (44 months (25 to 62) versus 45 months (24 to 64), respectively) (Mann-Whitney U test, p = 0.798). None of the pre-operative characteristics of the patients were associated with the development of heterotopic ossification: age, p = 0.606; body weight, p = 0.351; BMI, p = 0.208; diagnosis, p = 0.717; and Takakura classification, 15 p = 0.221; (all Mann-Whitney U tests), although heterotopic ossification was more than twice as prevalent in men as in women (p = 0.025; Table I). At the most recent follow-up the mean range of movement was not significantly different in patients with and without heterotopic ossification: dorsiflexion, p = 0.283; and plantar flexion, p = 0.406; (both Mann-Whitney U tests) (Table III).

Nor was there a significant difference in the mean post-operative VAS for pain (p = 0.929) or AOFAS scores (p = 0.454). There was no significant association between the degree of heterotopic ossification and clinical outcome (VAS, AOFAS score and range of movement; p > 0.05; Table IV). There was no significant relationship between the incidence of heterotopic ossification and the pre-operative presence of osteophytes in the posterior ankle joint, surgical release of the medial ligament, duration of surgery, or serum calcium and ALP levels (Table V). In terms of the size matching of the tibial component to the cut surface, ten components (11.1%) were small, 79 (87.7%) were optimal and one (1.2%) was large. The presence of heterotopic ossification was not significantly associated with tibial component cover in any of the component size categories (p = 0.565; Table VI). Discussion is fairly common after total hip and knee replacement, 16,17 with a reported incidence ranging between 2% and 90% but severe functional loss only affects between 1% and 2% of patients. 18 The incidence of ossification after TAR also varies greatly between 7% and 64%, 6,10,19-23 but the literature contains little information about its natural history and clinical significance. Some reports have suggested it as a source of pain. 6,20,21 Valderrabano, Hintermann and Dick 6 observed heterotopic ossification in 43 of 68 ankles (63%) after implanting the STAR prosthesis (Waldemar Link GmbH & Co. KG, Hamburg, Germany) despite the post-operative use of prophylaxis. Excision of the ossification and arthrolysis was necessary in 21%. 6 Elsewhere, symptomatic heterotopic ossification was detected in five of 67 HINTEGRA TARs (7%), causing pain and stiffness. 24 Removal of the ossification was undertaken in two ankles with a good result. However, Kim et al 10 reported that 11 of 45 ankles (24%) undergoing HINTEGRA TAR had heterotopic ossification, but found no significant difference in clinical outcome between patients with and without ossification. These patients were asymptomatic and no excision was THE JOURNAL OF BONE AND JOINT SURGERY

Wood and Deakin 22 found heterotopic ossification in 94 of 200 ankles (47%), with no association between its presence and pain. In our study the overall incidence of ossification was 34.4%. Except for gender, no preoperative characteristics were associated with the development of heterotopic ossification, men having a markedly higher incidence of ossification after TAR in this study (p = 0.025). When heterotopic ossification developed it was always located posterior to the distal tibia. It seems likely that disturbance of the cortex and periosteum by the distal tibial osteotomy is an important initiator for the development of ossification, owing to the release of mesenchymal stem cells and osteoblasts. 25 In addition, heterotopic ossification was present on the one-year post-operative radiographs in 30 of the 31 affected ankles. Among these 30 ankles, only seven had a subsequent increase in the grade of ossification. This is similar to the behaviour of the heterotopic ossification that occurs after total hip and knee replacement. 26,27 The range of movement, post-operative pain and AOFAS scores were not statistically different in patients with or without heterotopic ossification. Soft-tissue trauma is associated with the formation of heterotopic ossification, 17,27 which might be related to the excision of osteophytes in the posterior ankle joint or medial ligament release. However, in our study the risk of heterotopic ossification did not appear to Table V.

In addition, an increase in serum calcium and ALP levels has been related to heterotopic ossification after total hip replacement, 28,29 but there was no significant association between serum calcium and ALP levels and ossification in our study. Furthermore, several studies have demonstrated that the prophylactic use of NSAIDs or radiotherapy reduces the incidence of heterotopic ossification after arthroplasty of the hip. 25,30 Patients in this study were not routinely given prophylactic NSAIDs post-operatively and were not monitored for possible NSAID use. Several limitations of this study should be noted. The first involves the selective use of the HINTEGRA system, as our findings might not be applicable to patients receiving other implants. Secondly, as heterotopic ossification involves a three-dimensional structure, measuring the volume of heterotopic bone would have been a better way to quantify ossification. However, measuring the volume with plain radiographs was not practical. Instead, we used our classification system, which adjusts for differences in the scale of ossification between patients and takes into account the proportional involvement of the posterior ankle joint space. We believe that assessing the degree of ossification using this classification system was sufficient to achieve the goals of this study. Our study confirmed our hypothesis that heterotopic ossification formation is not associated with the outcome after TAR, and that the correlation between the degree of ossification and the outcome is not high in patients undergoing TAR. Our findings indicate that despite the fact that heterotopic ossification formation is not uncommon after VOL. 93-B, No. 11, NOVEMBER 2011

Surgeons should be cautious in attributing posterior symptoms and functional disabilities to the presence of heterotopic ossification in the posterior ankle joint when considering its excision.
