Summary

Total ankle replacement has become an increasingly recommended treatment option for endstage ankle osteoarthritis over the last decades. As a result of this progress, a large variety of implant systems exist.

The Hintermann Series H3 Total Ankle Replacement System (H3) is a three-piece, mobile-bearing implant. The H3 is indicated for use as a non-cemented implant to replace a painful arthritic ankle joint due to primary osteoarthritis, post-traumatic osteoarthritis, or arthritis secondary to inflammatory disease.

The purpose of this study is to investigate long-term (up to 5 years) how the H3 implant is performing, collect information about the device through x-rays of the joint, document any complications from the device implant, see how the device affects patient quality of life.

Transcatheter Geniculate Arterial Embolization: Treatment and Monitoring of Response

Keywords

Summary

Twelve patients with osteoarthritis of the knee will undergo Geniculate Artery Embolization for treatment of knee pain. Prior to the procedure, patients will undergo MRI imaging of the affected knee which will include contrast enhanced images and dynamic contrast enhanced images. The MRI will measure the degree of abnormal blood flow in the synovial lining of the knee joint as well as change in the knee joint structure found in osteoarthritis. Patients will be followed at 1, 6, and 12 months after the procedure, and knee pain as well as medication usage will be assessed at each interval. At the 6-month visit, patients will undergo a second MRI with contrast that will be used to compare the changes in blood flow and knee joint structure.
