title: Tenography in unresolved ankle tenosynovitis.
abstract: Tenosynovitis can be a source of prolonged ankle pain and disability. Based on a review of the literature and past clinical experience at our institution, early establishment of the correct diagnosis enabling definitive treatment may be difficult. We describe six patients with tenosynovitis of tendons about the ankle, the value of tenography in staging the severity of their disease, and its value in choosing appropriate definitive therapy.
