Abstract
This article discusses the biomechanics and tribology of total ankle replacements considering the influence of implant design and generation on functional outcome, before discussing the interplay between biomechanics and tribology in the clinical success of total ankle replacement. It reflects on what we know and highlights areas for further research, as well as identifying factors to consider in clinical practice.
