Proven. Flexible. Supported.
The Scandinavian Total Ankle Replacement (STAR® Ankle) is intended for use as a non-cemented implant to replace a painful arthritic ankle joint due to osteoarthritis, post-traumatic arthritis or rheumatoid arthritis.
Prior to STAR, surgeons had limited options when performing a total ankle arthroplasty. Surgeons now have STAR – the first three-piece mobile bearing ankle implant available in the United States approved for uncemented use.
PROVEN
With over 37 years of experience, more than 30,000 constructs chosen and sold worldwide with proven effectiveness in prospective outcome studies, STAR has the best published long-term metal component survivorship in the U.S. and Canada.1,2,4,5,6
FLEXIBLE
STAR’s modular components and positional forgiveness allow for 225 patient matched configurations with just one surgical technique. While rotating across the axial plane, mobile bearing allows for reduced point contact stress comparative to fixed bearing.3,7
