Abstract
Tarsal tunnel syndrome (TTS) is elicited by compression of the tibial nerve in the tarsal tunnel. TTS in the absence of a lesion tends to be idiopathic, and most TTS is idiopathic. Patients complain of several plantar symptoms, and TTS affects their quality of life. The symptoms tend to worsen with walking, and ankle joint movement and arterial distortion may also be involved. Because TTS symptoms are similar to those of diabetic neuropathy and lumbar disease, clinical symptoms are diagnostically important. While magnetic resonance imaging reveals nerve compression, it is difficult to identify causative factors, and false-positive results are a concern. Wound-related complications after TTS surgery may be reduced by a zigzag skin incision. Surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome yields better outcomes and greater patient satisfaction than TTS surgery.
期刊介绍：
The international effort to understand, treat and control disease involve clinicians and researchers from many medical and biological science disciplines. The Journal of Nippon Medical School (JNMS) is the official journal of the Medical Association of Nippon Medical School and is dedicated to furthering international exchange of medical science experience and opinion. It provides an international forum for researchers in the fields of bascic and clinical medicine to introduce, discuss and exchange thier novel achievements in biomedical science and a platform for the worldwide dissemination and steering of biomedical knowledge for the benefit of human health and welfare. Properly reasoned discussions disciplined by appropriate references to existing bodies of knowledge or aimed at motivating the creation of such knowledge is the aim of the journal.
