Abstract

Posterior ankle impingement is a syndrome characterized by discomfort or pain at the hind foot during plantarflexion. The etiology can be divided into three main categories: overuse, trauma and anatomic abnormalities. Regarding overuse, usually patients that complain of posterior ankle pain are ballet dancers, downhill runners, field athletes and soccer players secondary to flexor hallucis tendinitis.
