Popis: The Vantage total ankle replacement is a modern prosthetic design not well investigated in the literature. The aim of the present study was to analyze the early outcomes and complications of the Vantage total ankle system. Twenty-two Vantage total ankle implants were included in this retrospective study. Survivorship, complication rate, patient satisfaction, postoperative brace use, and pain levels were evaluated. At a mean follow up of 24.6 months (range 24 to 32 months). there was a 4.54% (1/22) overall complication rate and 100% implant survivorship. Patient-reported pain scores decreased from an average 7.4 (range 5-10).preoperatively to 0.66 (range 0-3). postoperatively. Only 9.09% (2/22) of patients required a brace postoperatively, and there was a 100% patient-reported satisfaction rate. The Vantage total ankle system was associated with a low complication rate and positive early outcomes in terms of pain improvement and patient-reported satisfaction.
