The forced dorsiflexion test as described by Molloy et al. (2003) has a sensitivity of 94,8% and a specificity of 88%. We have to be careful with the interpretation of these results as the study is at risk of bias which is why we attribute this test a moderate clinical value.

Pain with forced dorsiflexion. Whether it is possible to reproduce anterior impingement pain by palpating the anterolateral ankle in plantar flexion, then dorsiflexing the ankle while maintaining pressure with the examiner's digit over the anterolateral ankle. An increase in pain is 95% sensitive and 88% specific for AIS.

The test is considered positive when ankle dorsiflexion is greater with the knee in flexion than in extension. MRI sensitivity = 39% Physical Examination sensitivity = 94% Forced dorsiflexion; Posterior Ankle Impingement Examination [edit | edit source] Loss of mobility, accompanied by pain in posterior aspect of ankle

Tibiotalar Impingement is a source of anterior ankle pain that is most often caused by osteophyte impingement in the anterior tibiotalar joint. Diagnosis is made clinically with anterior ankle pain that worsens with forced dorsiflexion. Radiographs often show spurs in the anterior distal tibia or dorsal aspect of the talus.

Footballer's ankle is caused by any activity that requires repetitive and forced dorsiflexion in your ankle — in other words, pointing your foot upward. Aside from playing soccer, these

However, in an isolated high ankle sprain, the athlete or person may experience the following symptoms: • Point tenderness over anterolateral tibiofibular joint (above lateral malleolus) • Pain with weight-bearing. • Pain with passive dorsiflexion. • Pain with passive external rotation.

Interpretation. The closed pack position of the talocrural joint is full dorsiflexion. During the ankle impingement test, the patient is brought into this closed pack position, placing several connective tissues and muscles on passive tension. Moreover, the trochlear surface of the talus is wider anteriorly than posteriorly.

During forced dorsiflexion, the PTFL can rupture. With forced internal rotation, ATFL rupture is followed by injury to the PTFL. Extreme external rotation disrupts the deep deltoid ligament on the medial side, and adduction in neutral and dorsiflexed positions can disrupt the CFL. In plantarflexion, the ATFL can be injured.

The six findings you should look out for according to the authors are: Anterolateral ankle joint tenderness. Anterolateral ankle joint swelling probably due to synovitis. Pain with forced dorsiflexion and eversion of the affected ankle, which will narrow the anterolateral gutter. Pain with single-leg squat on the affected ankle.

Forced dorsiflexion compression fracture. Point tenderness over the calcanealcuboid joint (approximately 1 cm inferior and 3 to 4 cm anterior to the lateral malleolus)

https://www.kenhub.com/en/library/anatomy/dorsiflexion-of-the-foot
Dorsiflexion of the foot is a movement that occurs in the sagittal plane exclusively at the ankle joint. It is the upward motion of the foot so that its dorsal (superior) surface approaches the shin, reducing the angle between them, hence the '-flexion' part of the name. The range of dorsiflexion possible at the ankle joint varies depending on

CFL rupture: Forced Inversion This is a provocative test done to check for the integrity of the CFL. Forcefully invert the foot while keeping the leg still with the other hand. Make sure to compare side to side. ... Also, we can notice tenderness on forced dorsiflexion of the first toe, a maneuver called "the windlass mechanism."

https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/318930
Dorsiflexion is the movement of the foot upwards, so that the foot is closer to the shin. For a movement to be considered dorsiflexion, the foot should be raised upward between 10 and 30 degrees

https://www.orthobullets.com/foot-and-ankle/7023/peroneal-tendon-tears-and-instability
rapid forced dorsiflexion of the inverted foot will cause strain through the contracted peroneal muscles, leading to superior peroneal retinaculum (SPR) tear. most common pattern is longitudinal split tear in the PB. if superior peroneal retinaculum tears, tendons will become unstable and subluxate or completely dislocate.

- Forced dorsiflexion lateral: - will show an angle smaller than nl (35-50 deg); - w/ club foot, axes of talus & calcaneus becomes more parallel; - most reliable roentgenographic view is the lateral projection, usually with the foot in maximum dorsiflexion. - in clubfoot there is no convergence of talocalcaneal region (parallel alignment), and

Turf Toe. Turf Toe is a hyperextension injury to the plantar plate and sesamoid complex of the big toe metatarsophalangeal joint that most commonly occurs in contact athletic sports. Diagnosis is made clinically with the inability to hyperextend the hallux MTP joint without significant pain and the inability to push off with the big toe.

However, with a great enough force to the forefoot, the talus is forced to rotate laterally, thereby pushing the fibula externally away from the tibia, widening the mortise. This type of injury is often seen in football and skiing. Typically, ankle dorsiflexion causes the interosseous ligament to become taut. However, since the anterior aspect

1. Dorsiflexion External Rotation Stress Test (Kleiger's Test) Determines rotator damage to the deltoid ligament or the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis. Performed by having the knee flexed by 90 degrees with the ankle in neutral position and appyling an external rotational force to the affected foot and ankle.

Forced dorsiflexion in frontal vehicle crashes is considered a common cause of injury to the ankle joint. Although a few studies have been published on the dynamic fracture tolerance of the ankle in dorsiflexion, this work reexamines the topic with increased statistical power, adds an evaluation of articular cartilage injury, and utilizes methods to detect the true time of fracture.

Lateral ankle sprains are referred to as inversion ankle sprains or as supination ankle sprains. It is usually a result of a forced plantar flexion/inversion movement, the complex of ligaments on the lateral side of the ankle is torn by varying degrees. Although the ankle sprain is a relatively benign injury, inadequate rehabilitation can lead

1. Images. summary. Congenital Vertical Talus is a rare congenital condition caused by neuromuscular or chromosomal abnormalities in neonates that typically presents with a rigid flatfoot deformity. Diagnosis is made with forced plantar flexion lateral radiographs that show persistent dorsal dislocation of the talonavicular joint.
