title: Ankle tenography: a key to unexplained symptomatology. Part II: Diagnosis of chronic tendon disabilities.
abstract: Eight cases of tenosynovitis of the foot and ankle are reviewed with special attention to the value of tenography as a diagnostic and prognostic tool. Stenosing tenosynovitis of the posterior tibial and peroneal tendons may be a cause of chronic pain and disability. Surgical treatment is often required and the tenogram can be an important adjunct in decision-making.
