Caption: Transverse scan along the medial aspect of ankle
Description: The superficial soft tissues along the medial aspect of the right ankle demonstrate a mixed echogenicity mass which has ill-defined borders. This correlates clinically to the site of swelling.

Caption: Sagittal image along the medial aspect of the ankle
Description: The ill-defined soft tissue mass is noted in the superficial tissues again. No significant fluid is seen within this mass. Distally a small amount of clear anechoic fluid is seen along the tibialis posterior tendon.

Caption: Transverse image of the clinical swelling
Description: The internal characteristics of the superficial tissue mass are noted again in this image.

Caption: Scan just distal to the mass
Description: A small amount of fluid is seen distal to the mass.

|
Caption: Sagittal image along the medial aspect of the ankle
Description: Distal to the mass, a small amount of fluid is seen around the posterior tibialis tendon. This could represent reactionary fluid.

Caption: Sagittal image distal to the ankle swelling
Description: Fluid is seen tracking along the posterior tibialis tendon.

Caption: Color Doppler scan
Description: No significant internal vascularity is noted within the mass.
