Plexiform Neurofibroma of the Posterior Tibial Nerve Misdiagnosed as Proximal Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome: A Case Report
Plexiform neurofibromas of the foot are rare, benign tumors of the peripheral nerves. Diagnosis can be challenging if they present with symptoms mimicking other peripheral nerve pathologies. Tarsal tunnel syndrome is an entrapment syndrome of the entire tibial nerve behind the medial malleolus and under the flexor retinaculum. The clinical presentation typically includes posteromedial pain, pos...
متن کاملThe near-nerve sensory nerve conduction in tarsal tunnel syndrome.
The near-nerve sensory nerve conduction in the medial and lateral plantar nerves was studied in 25 cases of tarsal tunnel syndrome. Sensory nerve conduction was abnormal in 24 cases (96%) The most common abnormalities were slow nerve conduction velocities and dispersion phenomenon (prolonged duration of compound nerve action potentials). These two electrophysiological abnormalities are indicati...
متن کاملTarsal-tunnel syndrome.
In 14 patients tarsal tunnel syndrome was associated with varus heels and pronated, splayed forefeet. Review of the literature and the author's experience suggest that these conditions may be a common cause of the tarsal tunnel syndrome. Treatment of fixed varus deformities of the heel by outer heel wedges has been shown to be ineffective. Although outer heel wedges provide symptomatic relief i...
متن کاملTarsal Tunnel Syndrome
The tarsal tunnel syndrome consists of a complex of symptoms affecting the foot and is thought to be due to a compression neuropathy of the posterior tibial nerve within the fibro-osseous “ tunnel “ that lies beneath the flexor retinaculum on the medial side of the ankle. No comprehensive description of this condition can be found until 1962, when two isolated cases were reported (Keck 1962, La...
متن کاملOccupational tarsal tunnel syndrome.
Tarsal tunnel syndrome characterises a complex of symptoms that result from compression of the posterior tibial nerve as it passes through the fibro-osseus tunnel located beneath the flexor retinaculum on the medial aspect of the ankle.' The syndrome has been described in several case reports and review articles24 since Keck's5 and Lam's6 original case reports in 1962. Whereas other nerve entra...
