title: Sonography as an aid to neurophysiological studies in diagnosing tarsal tunnel syndrome.
abstract: Diagnosing tarsal tunnel syndrome can be difficult because of varying clinical diagnostic criteria and equivocal physical signs. We present a case of tarsal tunnel syndrome where nerve conduction identified distal tibial neuropathy and high-resolution sonography was able to show nerve swelling within the tarsal tunnel.
