Tarsal tunnel syndrome is a nerve disorder that is characterized by pain in the ankle, foot, and toes. This condition is caused by compression of the posterior tibial nerve, which runs through a canal near the heel into the sole of the foot. When tissues around this nerve become inflamed, they can press on the nerve and cause the pain associated with tarsal tunnel syndrome.
Biomarker and diagnostic research for tarsal tunnel syndrome has been reported in the published literature.
1 clinical trial registered. Interventions under study include drug therapy. Pipeline includes 1 PHASE2. Research is primarily sponsored by academic and government institutions.
84 publications have been identified in PubMed for tarsal tunnel syndrome. Research spans Review / Meta-Analysis (25%), Case Report / Case Series (23%), and Diagnostic / Biomarker (15%).
