Ankle impingement syndromes.
Acute or repetitive trauma to the ankle can result in painful restriction of movement caused by impingement of soft tissue and osseous structures. Ankle impingement syndromes are classified according to their anatomic relationship to the tibiotalar joint. This article reviews the relevant anatomy, etiology, and clinical features of ankle impingement syndromes, and demonstrates the potential imaging findings and discusses management of each for these conditions.
