Occult Ankle

For paediatric ankle injuries with normal radiographs, high resolution ultrasound has been shown to be useful in diagnosing occult fractures (SiMANOVSKY et al. 2005) and ligamentous injuries (Farley et al. 2001). The majority of these occult fractures are Salter-Harris I or II fractures of the distal fibular physis. If left undiagnosed and untreated the majority of such injuries would have a satisfactory outcome. [Pg.227]
