Posterior ankle impingement is typically seen in athletes, primarily dancers and soccer players, secondary to dynamic and repetitive push-off maneuvers and forced hyperplantarflexion. Posterior ankle impingement results from chronic, repetitive trauma to the posterior ankle capsule, flexor hallucis longus tendon, and/or os trigonum. It is important to perform a thorough workup by isolating and testing the posterior compartment muscles and obtaining proper imaging with radiographs to identify any osseous abnormalities and MRI to evaluate the soft tissue structures. Nonsurgical treatment includes activity modification, physical therapy, and steroid injections.
