  • Title: Tibial osteochondroma causing foot pain mimicking tarsal tunnel syndrome: a case report.
    Author: Matsumoto K, Sumi H, Shimizu K.
    Journal: J Foot Ankle Surg; 2005; 44(2):159-62. PubMed ID: 15768367.
    Abstract:
    Nerve entrapment syndromes of the lower extremity are relatively rare in patients with multiple hereditary osteochondromatosis. A case of tarsal tunnel like symptoms in a 52-year-old woman with a distal tibial osteochondroma is presented. This case emphasizes that the possibility of nerve compression needs to be considered in a patient with multiple hereditary osteochondromatosis and that tibial osteochondromas can be a cause of tarsal tunnel-like symptoms.
