Sažetak
Tarsal tunnel syndrome (TTS) is relatively rare compressive mononeuropathy of lower extremities caused by compression of tibial nerve and its associated branches (medial and lateral plantar nerve) in tarsal tunnel. It is one of canalicular sindromes, although much less common, and is equivalent of carpal tunnel syndrome. Clinically it is presented with pain in medial foot aspect, numbness and parestesia in the first three toes. Beside clinical assessement, diagnosis of this neuropathy is made by the use of electrodiagnostic procedures of neurography (ENG) and electromiography (EMG) and diagnostic ultrasound imaging. The management of tarsal tunnel syndrome can be conservative or operative. Patients with light to moderate simptoms are treated conservatively while those with severe damage undergo operative treatment. The aim of this systematic narrative review is to scrutinize the literature to date of TTS with emphasis on clinical diagnosis validation via neurography (ENG) and electromiography (EMG), and diagnostic ultrasound.
