Fig. 1A.33-year-old man with ankle pain and limp. Mortise view of
radiograph of ankle shows lucent lesion (arrow) in central portion of
tibial plafond.
Fig. 1B.33-year-old man with ankle pain and limp. Lateral radiograph
of ankle shows subtle loss of cortical line posteriorly (arrow). Note
os trigonum.
Fig. 1C.33-year-old man with ankle pain and limp. Axial CT scan of
ankle obtained at level of ankle joint shows how, initially, osteochondritis
dissecans (arrow) was thought to be in talus.
Fig. 1D.33-year-old man with ankle pain and limp. Sagittal
reconstruction of CT scan shows cortical depression (arrow) in
posterior half of distal tibia. Note os trigonum.
Fig. 1E.33-year-old man with ankle pain and limp. Coronal CT scan
shows osteochondral lesion with loose body (arrow) in medial aspect
of tibial plafond.
Fig. 2A.39-year-old man with ankle pain. Anteroposterior radiograph
of ankle shows lucent lesion (arrow) in lateral aspect of distal
tibia, with two calcified bodies located in lucency.
Fig. 3A.46-year-old man with ankle pain and swelling. Sagittal
T1-weighted MR image shows abnormally low signal intensity in posterior aspect
of tibial plafond (arrow).
Fig. 3B.46-year-old man with ankle pain and swelling. Sagittal short
tau inversion-recovery MR image shows abnormally high signal intensity in
posterior aspect of tibial plafond (arrow).
Fig. 3C.46-year-old man with ankle pain and swelling. Coronal
T2-weighted MR image shows cortical depression (arrow) in
posterolateral aspect of distal tibia and adjacent bone marrow edema.
