Caption
40 y/o F presented with 9 month history insidious onset L medial ankle pain and was found to have tibialis posterior tendon partial tear. Video shows transverse view scanning proximal to distal at the posteromedial ankle (left is posterior). There is thickening of the posterior tibialis tendon with an anechoic tendon sheath effusion. At the level of the medial malleolus there are two moderate interstitial tears extending distally. Flexor digitorum and hallicus longus appear unaffected.
