“…In our study, correlation between the ability of ultrasonography compared to MRI in detection of ATFL and CFL tears yielded a sensitivity of 100%, this is similar to Margetic et al, [15] who stated that ultrasound results agreed with MRI in 100% of the cases.…”

“…Comparative statistical analysis between ultrasound and MRI in evaluation of Achilles tendon pathology revealed 100% sensitivity of ultrasound regarding various pathological entities apart from Achilles tendinosis in which the sensitivity of ultrasound was 86.8% and Achilles complete tear in which the sensitivity of ultrasound was 83.33%, this agreed with Margetic et al, [15] in which the sensitivity of ultrasound compared to MRI regarding Achilles tendon pathology was 100%.…”

Background: In patients with ankle and foot pain, it is crucial to detect the lesion responsible for the pain for determining adequate treatment. MRI in combination with other radiologic images is currently regarded as the most appropriate diagnostic imaging of benign bone and soft tissue lesions in chronic ankle pain. Aim of Work: To evaluate the role of ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging in diagnosis of the etiology of chronic ankle pain. Material and Methods: This study included ninety patients with chronic ankle pain. All patients were subjected to clinical evaluation, ultrasound examination and MRI. Results: Both ultrasound and MRI revealed nearly the same results in evaluation of tendon abnormalities. Ultrasonography couldn't detect injuries of the posterior talo-fibular ligament as well as posterior tibio-fibular ligament while MRI could clearly detect them. Regarding other ligaments (anterior talo-fibular, anterior lower tibio-fibular and deltoid ligaments), MRI was slightly superior to ultrasound in evaluation of injuries of these ligaments. Ultrasonography could detect some cases of postero-medial impingement syndromes (caused by deltoid ligament injury), however it couldn't detect cases of posterior or anterior impingement (usually caused by bony abnormalities), these cases were better assessed by MRI examination. Cases of osteochondritis dessicans and bony tumors could be assessed by MRI examination however; ultrasonography was negative in detecting these lesions. Conclusion: Ultrasound and MRI showed similar results in evaluation of tendon and ligament injuries as well as entrapment neuropathy, MRI was superior to ultrasound in evaluation of impingement syndromes and osseous pathologies.

Soft-tissue ankle injuries are extremely common and frequently present in the emergency department or to the general practitioner. The lateral ligament complex is most commonly affected, usually following an injury with the ankle in an inverted, plantar-flexed position. The diagnosis is usually clinical, and delayed examination and reassessment 3—5 days after injury is recommended as pain and swelling hinder accurate assessment immediately following injury. Applying the Ottawa ankle rules can reduce the number of unnecessary radiographs. Treatment is usually non-operative with the focus on controlling ankle swelling and pain, and early restoration of ankle movements. Surgical repair of ligaments may be indicated in certain cases, though the role of surgery in the acute setting remains unclear. In the present review, we discuss the anatomy, mechanism of injury, risk factors, clinical presentation, diagnosis, treatment and outcome of soft-tissue ankle injuries as well as consider how such injuries may be prevented.

Zusammenfassung Zur Einleitung einer effektiven und zeitnahen Therapie nach Sportverletzungen ist ebenfalls eine zeitnahe effektive Diagnostik erforderlich. Aus der Anamnese und klinischen Untersuchung leiten sich Dringlichkeit und Reihenfolge der weiteren apparativen Diagnostik ab. Die Sonografie stellt hier aufgrund der vornehmlich weichteiligen Verletzungen den Grundstein dar. Hiermit k?nnen bereits viele Diagnosen gestellt oder ausgeschlossen werden. F?r eine weiterf?hrende Kernspintomografie ist anhand der klinisch gestellten Verdachtsdiagnose der Zeitrahmen zu setzen. W?hrend einige Diagnosen mit Verz?gerung bildmorphologisch gesichert werden k?nnen, brauchen andere eine unmittelbare MRT zur Einleitung der weiteren Therapie und Erreichung eines optimalen Outcomes.
