Abstract:
Posterior ankle pain is one of the most common intractable pain,whose etiology is diverse and difficult to diagnose.The causes of posterior ankle pain usually include posterior subtalar tarsal coalition,medial flexor tendon pathology,peroneal pathology,tendon pathology,Haglund syndrome,posterior ankle impingement syndrome,sinus tarsi pathology and tarsal tunnel syndrome.MRI can not only be used to evaluate the superficial soft tissue and deep ligaments and tendons,but also is suitable for showing bone marrow edema and bone contusion,therefore being the first choice for diagnosis of posterior ankle pain.Research progresses of MRI for diagnosis of etiology of posterior ankle pain were reviewed in this paper.
