Tarsal tunnel syndrome caused by anomalous muscle: case report

Abstract

Accessory muscles within the tarsal tunnel have been reported as a rare cause of tarsal tunnel syndrome. The most common variation provoking this pathologic condition is the flexor digitorum accessorius longus muscle. Herein, we present a rare case of a patient with tarsal tunnel syndrome due to this muscular variation. The discussion of this case report can prompt foot and ankle surgeons to be more aware of this infrequent finding
