Abstract
This case report describes a rare occurrence of talar osteochondroma extending into syndesmosis, causing disruption of the interosseous membrane and the posterior inferior tibiofibular ligament (PITFL). This type of presentation for a talar osteochondroma is the first of its kind reported in the literature based on current knowledge. A detailed preoperative radiological assessment was crucial in planning the surgical approach and preparing for syndesmotic stabilization during the excision. The patient underwent successful and complete excision of the osteochondroma, and the syndesmosis was stabilized using a cortical screw along with anatomical repair of the PITFL. Apart from delayed wound healing, the patient exhibited good functional outcomes in terms of gait and ankle range of motion at the six-month follow-up. This case serves as a valuable reference for similar presentations in the future, emphasizing the importance of thorough preoperative assessment and appropriate treatment planning.

Abstract
Objective Characterizing ankle tumors, presenting the epidemiological profile of these lesions. Methods Retrospective observational case series study to evaluate the results of clinical and/or surgical treatments of patients with ankle tumors whose first visit occurred from 1990 to 2020. The dependent variables were: benign bone tumor, malignant bone tumor, benign soft tissue tumor, malignant soft tissue tumor, and infection. The independent variables were: sex, age; presence of symptoms (pain/local volume increase/fracture), duration of symptoms until treatment, diagnosis, treatment, and recurrence. Results In total, 70 patients were included-58.5% were women, with a mean age at the time of diagnosis of 21.66 years. Among all cases, 76% were bone tumor, 14% were soft tissue tumor, and 10% were infection. The mean age at the time of diagnosis was 21.7 ± 2.29 years. The overall prevalence of pain was 77.1%. In total, 55.6% patients had a general local volume increase 13.4% had fractures. The mean time from symptoms to treatment was 17.4 ± 4.61 months and the mean diagnosis time was 10.13 ± 0.86 months. Of all cases, 73.44% underwent surgical treatment and 22.64% had recurrence. Conclusion In this series, ankle tumors corresponded mainly to bone tumors. Benign tumors were the most prevalent type of tumor and the highest occurrence was among young people. Level of Evidence IV, Case Series.

Abstract
Chondroblastoma located in the talus is a rare incidence, and due to the weightbearing duty of the talus, the results of local excision may not be favorable. While the volume of the tumor increases, more sophisticated techniques may be undertaken. Cell-free matrix application for extensive osteochondral defects is gaining popularity for its structural support when it is used with microfracture and autograft application. In this case report, we present a patient with 13 × 20 × 8mm-sized chondroblastoma located in the talus. After evaluation of the mass, we performed curettage, iliac crest autograft application, and augmentation with cell-free matrix. After uneventful clinical follow up, we present our patient's postoperative second year magnetic resonance imaging and functional status.

Abstract
Background Bone tumours of the talus are a rare cause of ankle pain. This study aims to provide additional clinical clarity regarding the presentation and management of a minimally researched topic. Methods Sixteen patients were diagnosed with bone tumour of the talus between 2002 and 2020 following referral for ankle pain. Symptoms, diagnosis, and management were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were actively followed up until consistently symptom-free and consenting to discharge (mean of 2.9 years). An open appointment was offered to all patients to reattend the unit if symptoms recurred. Results The most common diagnosis was osteoid osteoma/osteoblastoma (nine patients), chondroblastoma (four patients), a giant cell tumour of bone, a chondral lesion in Ollier's disease and a rare metastatic renal cancer case. The mean age of onset was 29 years. Thirteen patients experienced ankle pain without a clear precipitating cause. Night pain was less common in osteoid osteoma/osteoblastoma than usually observed in the literature. The mean delay in diagnosis was two years, often due to an incorrect diagnosis of soft tissue injury. Plain radiographs are insufficient to identify most lesions. Ten patients underwent computed tomography (CT)-guided radiofrequency ablation and five patients had open surgical curettage. Ollier's disease was managed with orthotics. The five cases of recurrence across four patients were managed operatively. Conclusions Patients are usually young and healthy with benign disease, but talus tumours can cause significant functional impairment. Unexplained ankle pain should be extensively examined and be further investigated with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and CT scanning to avoid missing these rare tumours.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to investigate the characterization and follow-up results of tumors and tumor-like lesions in the talus. PATIENTS AND METHODS Twenty-one patients (15 males, 6 females; mean age: 31.6±17 years; range, 4 to 67 years) with benign and malignant tumors or tumor-like lesions in the talus region treated and followed in our clinic between January 2007 and January 2019 were evaluated retrospectively. Radiological, pathological, surgical, and demographic features were scanned from the database. RESULTS Patients were followed for mean 80±45.1 (range, 25 to 156) months. The most common complaint was pain and antalgic gait. Benign bone tumors were found in 15 (71%) of 21 patients, while tumor-like lesions (two intraosseous ganglia, osteomyelitis, and bone infarction) were found in four patients. The remaining two were patients with lung and bladder cancer metastasis. Lesion size was mean 2.1±0.5 (range, 1.1 to 3.3) cm. Recurrence developed in 14.3% (n=3) of the patients during follow-up. CONCLUSION The talus is a rare location for tumors; however, benign and malignant tumors and tumor-like lesions may be localized in the talus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary bone tumours of the talus are a rare entity and seldom described in the literature. Due to this, often the diagnosis and management of such cases are delayed. This study aims to describe a spectrum of lesions identified within our department and provide a pictorial review with the goal to aid radiologists in the evaluation and diagnosis of such lesions. MATERIALS & METHODS A retrospective study was conducted within our department, identifying all talar lesions, confirmed on histopathological and radiological diagnosis. RESULTS Results revealed 75 cases of talar lesions. Benign tumours formed the bulk of the lesions identified accounting for 85% of all cases. The most common benign tumour was chondroblastoma (n = 23). Malignant tumours were detected in 6 cases. Other lesions included osteomyelitis and avascular necrosis. CONCLUSION We present a variety of tumours and tumour-like conditions of the talus. Radiologists as well as orthopaedic surgeons need to be aware of such lesions, to prompt early diagnosis and initiate management in timely fashion.

Abstract
Benign fibrous histiocytoma (BFH) is a rare benign primary bone lesion that occurs most frequently in the nonmetaphysis region of the long bones and the pelvic bones. The talus is a rare location for a BFH, which has not been reported previously in the literature. We report the case of a 19-year-old male patient with BFH of the talus, who was treated with curettage, followed by filling of the bone defect with calcium phosphate cement. The patient was free of pain and without local recurrence 5 years after the surgery. We describe the detailed radiographic findings of this rare lesion and discuss the differential diagnosis of such talar lesions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoid osteomas are responsible for 10% of benign bone tumours. Treatment typically involves surgical excision or radio frequency ablation. The aim of this systematic review is to evaluate reported cases of foot and ankle osteoid osteomas. METHODS We conducted a systematic review of the literature using the online databases Medline and EMBASE. We included studies reporting osteoid osteoma diagnosed either radiologically or histologically. RESULTS 94 studies were included reporting 223 cases; 70.5% were male, mean age was 23 years, 69% reported night pain and 72% responded to NSAIDs. The commonest affected bone was the talus. CT scan was the most useful radiological investigation and MRI missed the diagnosis in 34% of cases. The majority of patients underwent surgical excision but an increasing trend of ablation therapy was demonstrated. CONCLUSIONS A high index of suspicion based on salient history and appropriate imaging are essential for timely identification and treatment.

Abstract
Intra-articular tumors in the ankle are a rare presentation for metastatic disease. Metastatic breast disease presenting distal to the knee or within any joint is especially rare. We present a case of a painful intra-articular breast metastasis in a 56-year-old female with known breast carcinoma. The patient presented with anterior ankle pain and was found to have an intra-articular ankle tumor that was eroding into the anteromedial talus. The distinct soft tissue tumor was excised from the ankle and the talar lesion curetted and treated with adjuvant chemical ablation. The void in the talus was filled with cement. Despite the patient's poor prognosis, she did not have ankle pain at 6 months postoperatively and was able to ambulate without assistive devices. When treating unknown tumors in the ankle, the treating surgeon must be prepared with different operative plans that will depend on the preliminary pathology report to best treat their patients safely.
