Core Tip |
Our prospective study included 35 patients under 18 years of age diagnosed with Posterior ankle impingement Syndrome (PAIS) who underwent arthroscopic treatment for failed conservative management. We found that there was an average of 19 mo delay in diagnosis from initial presentation to a medical provider. All patients had posterior ankle tenderness which was used to make the clinical diagnosis. The pain relief with arthroscopic debridement, as evidenced by improvement of Visual Analogue Scale and American Orthopedic Foot Ankle Society scores was used to confirm our clinical diagnosis of PAIS. Our study shows that there needs to be an increased awareness about PAIS is needed amongst providers treating young patients. |
