Ankle: Ligament Pathology 3 Flashcards
Ankle impingement: usually occur secondary to
Trauma
Ankle impingement: Pain located where?
- sinus tarsi
- syndesmosis
- posterior ankle
- anterolateral gutter
Ankle impingement: usually occur due to
- hypermobility
- disruption of stabilizing structures
Ankle impingement: Disruption of stabilizing structures…
- bones
- joint capsules
- ligaments
- tendons
Ankle impingement: Recurrent ankle pain with (motions)
Either DF or PF
Osseous impingement: what is it?
Abnormal calcification within the joint
Osseous impingement: abnormal calcification within the joint, specifically where?
- talus
- tibia
- fibula
Osseous impingement: May be the direct result of
- Anterior ankle capsule traction with repetitive minor trauma
- results from PF during activity
Osseous impingement: Once the spur forms, DF may cause what?
- entrapment of bordering soft tissue
- contact with opposing bony structures
- causes chronic pain during activity
Posterior impingement: occurs when?
Talus and/or neighboring soft tissue become compressed between the tibia and calcaneus with repetitive or extreme PF
Posterior impingement: What may initiate posterior impingement?
- acute inversion ankle injuries
- overuse injuries involving trauma in ankle PF
Heel pain: posterior heel pain differential dx
- retrocalcaneal bursitis
- haglund’s deformity
- Achilles tendinopathyh
- S1 radiculopathy
- Sever’s disease
Heel pain: What is Sever’s disease?
Abnormal stress at the epiphysis
Heel pain: Plantar heel pain differential dx
- plantar fascia microtrauma
- tibial nerve entrapment
- fat pad atrophy
- heel spur
- stress fx
- TTS
- subtalar hypomobility
- systemic problems
- S1 radiculopathy
Heel pain: Systemic issues that may cause plantar heel pain
- Reiter’s syndrome
- gout
- RA
Plantar fasciitis: what tissue may be affected?
- plantar fascia
- plantar ligament
- bone spur
- adverse nerve tension
