Abstract
Total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) has become a popular management option for ankle arthritis. Periprosthetic osteolysis is one of the most common causes for reoperation in TAA. A CT scan should be done in all suspected osteolysis cases to confirm location, quantify size and aid in surgical planning. These patients are often asymptomatic with limited evidence regarding appropriate management. Smaller lesions should be monitored for progression in size. Periprosthetic cysts measuring 10-15mm in all three axes should be considered for debridment and curettage with autogenous bone grafting. The authors believe that bone grafting of large asymptomatic periprosthetic cysts could prevent implant failure.
