Adhesive lesions of the talocrural joint.
Iatrogenic and posttraumatic adhesive lesions of the ankle joint are rather common, although infrequently reported, clinical entities. Ankle arthroscopy has proved to be a valuable asset in the assessment and treatment of recalcitrant symptomatic cases of both localized adhesions and adhesive capsulitis. This article intends to broaden the reader's understanding of the clinical presentation and intra-articular derangements of these lesions.
