1.	Arthritis (Polyarthritis) 01/04/2012 - "The purpose of the present study was to document the patient self-reported improvements in quality of life, function, and overall impairment scores, as well as the improvement in the clinically derived outcome scores, following a Scandinavian Total Ankle Replacement (STAR) arthroplasty performed for the treatment of end-stage ankle arthritis. " 05/01/2022 - "As a result of improved implants total ankle replacement (TAR) is becoming a more reliable option for end stage ankle arthritis. " 09/01/2020 - "The gold standard for management of end-stage ankle arthritis was previously ankle arthrodesis; however, improvements in total ankle replacements are making this a more viable treatment option. " 07/15/2015 - "At a $100,000/QALY threshold, surgical management of ankle arthritis was preferred for patients younger than ninety-six years and total ankle replacement was increasingly more cost-effective in younger patients. " 12/01/2010 - "While ankle arthrodesis has remained the gold standard treatment for symptomatic primary, secondary, and posttraumatic ankle arthritis, more recently, total ankle replacement (TAR) has seen considerable improvement in terms of biomechanics, function, and complication rates. "
2.	Osteoarthritis 11/09/2023 - "SMOT is very effective in the treatment of post-traumatic ankle osteoarthritis and postpones ankle fusion or total ankle replacements. " 05/01/2021 - "Third-generation total ankle replacement (TAR) is an increasingly popular and effective treatment for end-stage osteoarthritis, yet identifying causes of failure remains challenging. " 10/12/2020 - "Arthroscopy can be an effective treatment for some patients, but in case of severe arthrosis, osteotomies, total ankle replacement or arthrodesis may be necessary." 05/23/2021 - "This study found that this new total ankle replacement design is a safe and effective procedure for patients effected by end-stage ankle osteoarthritis. " 01/01/2021 - "This study found that trans-fibular total ankle replacement is a safe and effective option for patients with ankle osteoarthritis, resulting in improvement of patient-reported outcomes, range of motion, and radiographic parameters. "
3.	Pain (Aches) 09/01/2015 - "A statistically significant improvement in pain was observed after total ankle replacement (p < .001). " 06/03/2015 - "Although obese patients had increased disability and worse function preoperatively, total ankle replacement significantly and similarly improved pain and disability scores in both obese and non-obese patients, with no significant difference in the proportion of complications. " 11/01/2008 - "Advances in total ankle replacement may mean more pain relief for more people." 09/01/2013 - "Our study shows a high satisfaction rate after total ankle replacement and clear pain relief. " 07/01/2023 - "Alongside advances and trends in foot and ankle surgery, arthroscopy provides a minimally invasive option in exploring and addressing pain after total ankle replacement (TAR). "
4.	Congenital Abnormalities (Deformity) 12/01/2014 - "Patients with preoperative coronal plane varus tibiotalar deformities of ≥10° who underwent total ankle replacement have shown significant improvement in clinical outcome scores at the time of mid-term follow-up.IndicationsContraindicationsPitfalls & Challenges." 01/01/2013 - "Some surgeons have emphasized that good outcomes in total ankle replacement are more dependent on ligament balancing, along with the procedure itself, than the extent of preoperative coronal deformity in the ankle. " 09/01/2009 - "Our study describes the clinical outcome of total ankle replacement (TAR) performed in patients with moderate to severe varus deformity. " 01/01/2009 - "Our findings support previous studies which suggested that total ankle replacement should be undertaken with extreme caution in the presence of marked varus or valgus deformity." 12/01/2023 - "Total Ankle Replacement in Cavovarus Deformity: How Far Can We Go?"
5.	Joint Diseases (Joint Disease) 01/01/2021 - "The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of total ankle replacement (TAR), implanted using a trans-fibular lateral approach in patients with high-grade degenerative arthropathy, in terms of clinical, functional and radiological outcomes and possible complications. " 04/01/2015 - "The purpose of this study is to describe the results of arthroscopic ankle debridement (AAD) with the aim of determining whether it is possible to avoid or delay ankle fusion or total ankle replacement for advanced haemophilic arthropathy of the ankle in young patients. " 11/01/2021 - "Despite intensive conservative therapy, end-stage arthropathy requires surgical treatment, either by ankle fusion (AF) or total ankle replacement (TAR). " 11/01/2021 - "Clinical and patient reported outcome in total ankle replacement compared to ankle fusion in end-stage haemophilic arthropathy." 01/01/2020 - "To summarize the contemporary, accessible information on Total Ankle Replacement (TAR) for ankle hemophilic arthropathy.
