Abstract
Ankle-joint orthopaedic prosthesis designed to provide stabilization of the tarsal joint in the case of ligament instability and to provide guidance after injuries to the ligaments, while nevertheless leaving the talocrural articulation free. It is intended to provide precise matching to the axis of the ankle-joint. The orthopaedic prosthesis (1) comprises a foot receptacle (2) and a leg receptacle (3). The foot receptacle has an opening (8) at the point corresponding to the heel walking surface. The leg receptacle has, in the triceps plantaris muscular region, a rear opening which leaves free room for the latter. The position of the point of rotation of the articulation (18, 19) linking the foot receptacle and leg receptacle can be adjusted in relation to the foot receptacle.
