Abstract

The ankle fusion with modified Blair technique was performed in nine patients at the between April 1993 and February 1996. Six of them were male and others were female. The mean age was 48.3 years old. The etiology was post traumatic arthrosis in six patients and degenerative arthrosis in two and severe instability in last one as a result of large resection of ankle ligament and capsule because of recurrent aggressive giant cell tendon tumor. The average follow up period was 14 months. The fusion was obtained in all cases. No serious complication was seen. In conclusion, we think that the modified Blair technique is useful alternative methods on ankle fusion in following reasons: the foot appears relatively normal, little shortening is produced on the extremity, it allows subtalar motions, the fusion rate is high, its surgical technique is simple, its cost is inexpensive and it does not need to bone graft.

Modifiye Blair yöntemi ile ayakbileği artrodezi uygulamalarımız

Abstract

Nisan 1993 ve Şubat 1996 tarihleri arasında dokuz hastaya çeşitli nedenlerden dolayı modifiye Blair yöntemi ile ayak bileği artrodezi yapıldı. Hastaların altısı erkek, üçü kadındı. Ortalama yaş 48.3 idi. Hasta-ların altısına post travmatik artroz, ikisine ise dejeneratif osteoartroz tabloları nedeniyle artrodez yapıldı. Dokuzuncu hastada ise tekrar eden dev hücreli agresif tendon tümörü nedeniyle yapılan geniş rezeksiyon sonrası ortaya çıkan ayak bileği eklemi ansiabilitesi anrodez endikasyonunu doğurdu. Hastalar ortalama 14 ay izlendiler. Hepsinde kaynama (füzyon) oluştu. Hiç birinde ciddi bir komplikasyona rastlanmadı. So-nuç olarak, ayak görünümünün kozmetik olması, bacakta çok az bir kısalığa neden olması, subralar eklem hareketini bozmaması, kaynama olasılığının yüksek olması, cerrahi yöntemin kolay uygulanması, maliyenin ucuz olması ve ek kemik grefti gerektirmemesi nedeniyle modifiye Blair yönteminin ayak bileği anrodez uy-gulamasında iyi bir seçenek olduğu düşünüldü.
