Ankle Osteomyelitis old




 

Radiological Report : XR Ankle Rt :

Comparison is made with 28.7.05. The appearances are essentially unchanged from that time with continued marked deformity of the hind foot and marked degenerative change within the ankle and the subtalar joints. The appearance would be in keeping with previous osteomyelitis and secondary degenerative change. No new bony destruction is seen to suggest more recent infection, although naturally given this degree of bony deformity, it would be difficult to demonstrate early change.
