Total ankle arthroplasty has gained popularity as advancing technology has resulted in higher survivorship and lower complication rates. In the past, total ankle replacement candidates have been reserved for patients greater than 50 years old with low physical demands and minimal deformity. However, with newer designs, surgeons have begun to expand their patient inclusion criteria. The purpose of this study was to analyze current literature comparing patient outcomes among total ankle replacement patients over and under age 50. A systematic review of the literature was performed comparing the impact of age to total ankle replacement outcomes. 159 articles were reviewed. Seven studies met our inclusion criteria and therefore were included in the synthesis. No statistically significant difference in outcomes was determined for the younger and older age groups in regard to reoperation, complications, and implant survivorship (p = 0.412, 0.955, 0.155, respectively). However, the statistical model is underpowered given the limited number of studies. While the findings of this study conclude that total ankle replacement outcomes are not significantly different among older and younger age groups, further research in this area is needed.
