Abstract
Adhesive capsulitis is a well known ailment that most often affects the shoulder, but can occur in the hip, wrist, and the ankle. As it relates to the ankle joint, the condition is commonly referred to as ‘frozen ankle’ and presents as a challenge in both its diagnosis and treatment. Although there is much literature regarding the etiology, pathology, and treatment of ‘frozen shoulder’, there is little with regards to the ankle, with most being case reports. The purpose of this article is to provide a clinical review of the concept of adhesive capsulitis, its impact as it relates to the ankle, diagnostic criteria, and current treatment modalities.
