AB  - BACKGROUND: Few studies have outlined the outcomes and complications in Asians 
      undergoing total ankle arthroplasty. This study reports the functional, 
      radiological outcomes and satisfaction rates in our Asian population. METHODS: 
      Patients who underwent primary total ankle arthroplasty from 2007 to 2013 were 
      recruited. Outcomes evaluated were the AOFAS Ankle-Hindfoot Score (AHS), Visual 
      Analogue Scale (VAS), and the Short Form 36 (SF-36)questionnaire. Outcome scores 
      were collected prospectively up to 2 years. Patient satisfaction was evaluated on 
      a 6-point scale based on North American Spine Society Low Back Pain Instrument 
      and classified as satisfied or unsatisfied. RESULTS: Forty-one patients underwent 
      primary total ankle arthroplasty. All patients experienced improvements in AHS, 
      VAS, and Mental Component Summary score of the SF-36 at both 6-month and 2-year 
      postoperative interval. The mean AHS score improved from 35 +/- 19 points 
      preoperatively to 64 +/- 24 at 6 months (P<.001) and 72 +/- 26 at 24 months (P 
      <.001). VAS scores improved from 7 +/- 2 preoperatively to 3 +/- 3 (P < .001) at 6 
      and 24 months. The Physical Component Summary (PCS) of the SF-36 has an 
      established minimum clinically important difference (MCID) of 5. The mean 
      improvement in PCS in our cohort met this MCID for the PCS; 63% and 71% of 
      patients were satisfied with the procedure at 6 months and 2 years 
      postoperatively, respectively. Revision rate in this series was 9.7%. CONCLUSION: 
      Total ankle arthroplasty has good patient satisfaction rates, with favorable 
      early clinical outcome in Asian patients. LEVELS OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic, Level 
      II.
