Abstract:
Sinus tarsi syndrome (STS) is a clinical entity characterized by pain of the lateral hindfoot and a sense of instability especially on uneven surfaces due to chronic inflammation characterized by fibrotic tissue remnants and synovitis of the sinus tarsi, associated with both traumatic and nontraumatic causes.
