Abstract
A diagnosis of stress fracture of the lateral process of the talus was made in a 52-year-old tennis player with chronic lateral ankle pain. This uncommon condition should be considered in the differential diagnosis of chronic lateral ankle pain in an athlete, as delay in appropriate treatment may lead to considerable morbidity.
