Scandinavian Total Ankle Replacement (STAR)
The device has three parts: two metal bearing surfaces (cobalt-chromium alloy) plates with bars that fit into the bone and one plastic (polyethylene) spacer that moves between the metal plates like a ball bearing. The materials in the S.T.A.R. device are the same materials used in total hip and knee implants.
