Abstract

Tarsal tunnel syndrome is a complex of symptoms resulting from the compression of the posterior tibial nerve or its branches. Many studies have done on etiologic agents. We reported two cases of tarsal tunnel syndrome secondary to the varicosis of posterior tibial vein. Symptoms were relieved after excision of the varicosis, neurolysis and reposition of posterior tibial nerve.
