Abstract
Total Ankle Arthroplasty (TAA) is increasing in popularity following the development of the, next generation of implants and improved surgical technique giving better long-term results. Significant mal-alignment of the ankle pre-operatively has always provided a challenge to the surgeon, to regain anatomical alignment to reduce subsequent wear. We present a series of two cases of TAA, who developed post-operative valgus deformity requiring salvage procedure in the form of a fibula, lengthening osteotomy.
