| Abstract |
The main indication for the supramalleolar osteotomy is asymmetric ankle osteoarthritis with concomitant supramalleolar valgus or varus deformity. The aim of this prospective study was to analyze short-term clinical and radiographic outcomes in patients with asymmetric ankle osteoarthritis. A total of 16 patients with asymmetric ankle osteoarthritis and concomitant supramalleolar deformity - 7 patients with valgus deformity, 9 patients with varus deformity - were treated. Intraoperative and postoperative complications were recorded and analyzed. The clinical and radiographic outcomes were assessed after a mean follow-up of 3.6 ± 1.1 years. In 10 of 16 patients, removal of hardware was performed. The AOFAS hindfoot score increased significantly after surgery. All categories of the SF-36 score showed significant improvement. The average range of motion also increased significantly. Radiographic assessment showed neutral hindfoot alignment at the latest follow-up. The postoperative clinical outcomes were comparable in both patient groups. The time until complete osseous union was significantly longer in patients with opening wedge osteotomy. This prospective study demonstrated encouraging short-term results in patients with asymmetric ankle osteoarthritis who underwent supramalleolar osteotomy. In progressive ankle osteoarthritis, joint-nonpreserving treatment options including total ankle replacement or ankle arthrodesis should be discussed. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 12 April 2017.
All research outputs
#22,764,772
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Die Orthopädie
#276
of 678 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#284,506
of 324,619 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Die Orthopädie
#4
of 32 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 678 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 1.5. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 324,619 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 32 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
