Ankle Replacement

I have a fused ankle and will need an ankle replacement someday and would like to know if there are any medical advances on ankle replacements? I know great things are happening with hip and knee replacements, it will be interesting to find out what's happening with ankles.

Here are a few more questions I have:

Who is a good candidate for ankle replacement surgery and why?

Who is not a good candidate for ankle replacement surgery and why?

Is ankle fusion or ankle replacement a better surgery and why?

Thanks!
