Resumen (ES)

Tarsal tunnel syndrome is an entrapment neuropathy caused by compression of
the posterior tibial nerve or one of its branches beneath the ankle flexor retinaculum. We present
a case of tarsal tunnel syndrome caused by synovial cyst. Since one month the patient
complained about pain retromaleolarly radiating to the sole of the foot and first toe. At retromaleolar
level a mass was found one month after the onset of symptoms. We report the
E.M.G., ultrasonography and R.N.M. findings. When the cause of this syndrome is a space-occupying
lesion surgery is indicated. The results of surgery are worse when operation is delayed.
