“…Tibial osteophytes and especially soft-tissue causes are also recognized as important in the pathogenesis of ankle impingement [3,7,26,27]. We were unable to assess these two entities because of lack of access to the tibial counterparts of the talus bone specimens and insufficient clinical data on the cadavers.…”

“…Further evaluation can be performed with MRI, which can help localize the bone spurs and further characterize the synovial thickening. 36 MRI can also be particularly useful to visualize intra-articular fibrous bands and identify soft-tissue pathology, if present. A prospective study evaluating MRI in the setting of chronic ankle pain noted only modest sensitivity and specificity for anterior tibial osteophytes (67% and 78%, respectively), although it had high a sensitivity (89%) for synovitis, capsular thickening, scar and granulation tissue.…”

“…The sensitivity of plain radiographs for diagnosing the intra-/juxta-articular OO of the talar neck is reportedly as low as 61.5% [5]. MRI presentation in an impingement syndrome includes synovitis, joint effusion, and bone marrow effusion of the areas of impact, which is difficult to discriminate from those of intra-articular OO [12]. CT has higher sensitivity than MRI, typically demonstrating a low attenuation nidus with focal central calcification and surrounding sclerosis which could not be shown clearly in MRI [5, 13].…”
