Change of Segmental Motion Following Total Ankle Arthroplasty Using a 3-Dimensional Multi-segment Foot Model.

TAA did not result in biomechanical improvements of segmental motions in the forefoot and hindfoot, except for changes to the bony structures. Therefore, it is important to point out to patients that TAA will not result in significant improvement of ankle function and range of motion. Clinicians can consider this information during preoperative counseling.
