This publication will be the first comprehensive atlas on this topic and offers a unique physiological and mechanical characteristics of the ankle joint and of the selected total ankle system. Furthermore it will greatly enhance oneÆs knowledge of this dynamic field and stimulate the scientific approach to management of end-stage arthritis of the ankle. It reflects the authorÆs accumulated experience of the last decade with extended laboratory work on biomechanics of the ankle joint complex and more than 350 total ankle procedures.
