65-year-old male with type 2 diabetes mellitus with unspecified complication. Right diabetic foot ulcer. Rule out osteomyelitis. TENDONS: The flexor and extensor tendons appear grossly intact. The peroneal tendons appear intact. The Achilles tendon appears intact.LIGAMENTS: The distal tibiofibular syndesmotic complex appears intact. The lateral collateral ligament complex appears intact. The visualized components of the deltoid ligament appear intact.ARTICULAR SURFACES AND BONE: There is increased signal abnormality within the fifth metatarsal remnant on fluid sensitive sequences with decreased signal abnormality on T1-weighted sequences consistent with osteomyelitis. There is cortical distinctness along the lateral aspect of the base of the fifth metatarsal consistent with osteolysis. No focal fluid collection is identified, although evaluation for abscess formation is limited on this noncontrast examination. Note is made of postsurgical changes of prior transmetatarsal amputation.ADDITIONAL
Findings consistent with osteomyelitis of the base of the fifth metatarsal remnant as described above. No focal fluid collection to suggest abscess formation, within the limitations of a noncontrast examination. Other findings as described above.
