Abstract

This report concerns an unusual cause of anterior ankle impingement. The case of a young male with Trevor's disease mimicking an anterior spur of the ankle that resulted in anterior impingement and treated with ankle arthroscopy is presented. The aim of this study is to explain the different diagnostic properties of Trevor's disease from a classic anterior spur.
