BACKGROUND: Os trigonum and Stieda process are common etiologies for posterior ankle impingement syndrome (PAIS), and diagnosis is typically made by radiographs, computed tomographic, or magnetic resonance imaging. However, these static tests may not detect associated soft tissue and bony pathologies. Posterior ankle and hindfoot arthroscopy (PAHA) is dynamic, providing at least ×8 magnification with full anatomical visualization. The primary aim of this study was to report the prevalence of associated conditions seen with trigonal impingement treated with PAHA...
