Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome

Neurophysiology

This video will explain #Tarsal #Tunnel #Syndrome; how it presents, the differential diagnosis, clinical features, neurophysiology findings and current management options. There is quite a wide array of causes of #ankle #pain which need to be considered. These can include #arthritis, #tendonitis, #bursitis, #stress #fractures, to list but a few of them. #MRI and #Ultrasound imaging can be very beneficial in identifying these, as well as any lesional causes of Tarsal Tunnel. Diagnosis based purely on clinical grounds is challenging as many features within the differential can overlap. Neurophysiology, is said to be around 50% sensitive for a variety of reasons, fully explained in the video. Hence the right balance must be struck between making a clinical diagnosis which can over diagnose the problem and Neurophysiology which can under diagnose it. #Treatment is challenging and needs to address both the underlying cause and symptom relief. #Surgical #decompression is quite a specialist area, to be done well, and there is a complex literature regarding success rates. Hence, its very important, for those considering an operation, to have a clear idea as to the potential benefits and risks. I hope you enjoyed this video and found it useful.
