Résumé
Percutaneous ankle fusion is an emerging technique with minimal published outcome data. The goal of the present study is to retrospectively review clinical and radiographic outcomes following percutaneous ankle fusion and provide technique tips to perform percutaneous ankle fusion. Patients >18 years of age, treated by a single surgeon, from February 2018 to June 2021, who underwent primary isolated percutaneous ankle fusion supplemented with platelet-derived growth factor B (rhPDGF-BB) and beta-tricalcium phosphate, with at least 1-year follow-up were included. Surgical technique consisted of percutaneous ankle preparation followed by fixation with 3 headless compression screws. Pre- and postoperative visual analog scale (VAS) and Foot Function Index (FFI) were compared using paired Twenty-seven consecutive adult patients were included in the study. Mean follow-up was 21 months. Mean age was 59.8 years. Mean preoperative and postoperative VAS scores were 7.4 and 0.2, respectively ( We found in this cohort with surgery performed by a surgeon highly experienced in minimally invasive surgery that percutaneous ankle fusion augmented with a bone graft supplement achieved a high rate of fusion (96.3%) and a significant improvement in pain and function postoperatively while associated with minimal complications. Level IV, case series.

Percutaneous ankle fusion is an emerging technique with minimal published outcome data. The goal of the present study is to retrospectively review clinical and radiographic outcomes following percutaneous ankle fusion and provide technique tips to perform percutaneous ankle fusion.

Patients >18 years of age, treated by a single surgeon, from February 2018 to June 2021, who underwent primary isolated percutaneous ankle fusion supplemented with platelet-derived growth factor B (rhPDGF-BB) and beta-tricalcium phosphate, with at least 1-year follow-up were included.

Conclusion
UNASSIGNED
We found in this cohort with surgery performed by a surgeon highly experienced in minimally invasive surgery that percutaneous ankle fusion augmented with a bone graft supplement achieved a high rate of fusion (96.3%) and a significant improvement in pain and function postoperatively while associated with minimal complications.
