Johns Hopkins All Children’s Sports Medicine - Anterior Ankle Bony Impingement

Anterior Ankle Bony Impingement of the Ankle Hello my name is Dr. Drew Warnick, and I am the surgical director of AllSports Medicine at All Children's Hospital. I am a pediatric orthopaedic surgeon with special training in pediatric and adolescent sports medicine surgery. In this video, we are going to discuss anterior ankle bony impingement What is Anterior ankle bony impingement? The ankle is a hinge joint. The tibia and fibula form the roof of the joint, and the talus forms the dome. Anterior ankle bony impingement occurs when the bones of the ankle are abnormally shaped. Because they do not fit together perfectly, the bones can hit or impinge against each other during movement and cause damage to the ankle. Over time, this can result in damage to the ankle joint. How do I know if I have Anterior ankle bony impingement? People with anterior ankle impingement usually have pain in the anterior ankle. Stabbing or achy pain usually occurs with ankle dorsiflexion. Because athletically active people may work the ankle joint more vigorously, they may begin to experience pain earlier than those who are less active. How is Anterior ankle bony impingement diagnosed ? At Allsports medicine, we will examine your ankle with specific tests to help diagnose anterior ankle bony impingement. Xrays and additional imaging may be needed to help identify this condition.. What are my treatment options? Anterior ankle bony impingement can sometimes be initially treated with anti-inflammatory medication and avoiding activities that cause symptoms. If symptoms are not relieved with conservative measures, arthroscopic surgery may be needed. Using cutting edge techniques, we can place a small camera into the ankle joint. The abnormally shaped bone can be re-contoured and reshaped to prevent impingement. Correcting the impingement lesion can reduce symptoms and prevent future damage to the ankle. Care after surgery? Return to activity can be expected a few months after surgery.
