title: [Anterolateral ankle pain: differential diagnosis and approach. A case report].
abstract: The ankle soft tissue pathology represents a very painful disorder for patients who, often times, are not precisely diagnosed. Anterolateral ankle impingement is a condition that occurs in young people and athletes due to a plantar flexion-inversion mechanism. We report a case of anterolateral ankle impingement describing the arthroscopic technique and making the differential diagnosis considering other conditions.
