    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Sinus tarsi syndrome, a foot condition causing ankle instability and pain, can be diagnosed using subtalar joint arthrography and peronei electromyography. Most patients benefit from conservative treatment or surgery.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedics
    • Sports Medicine
    • Foot and Ankle Surgery

    Background:

    • Sinus tarsi syndrome is a recognized foot pathology.
    • Typically resulting from trauma, it presents with lateral foot pain and ankle instability.
    • The syndrome affects the sinus tarsi, a space within the foot's tarsal bones.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To define objective diagnostic criteria for sinus tarsi syndrome.
    • To evaluate the effectiveness of conservative and surgical treatments.

    Main Methods:

    • Subtalar joint arthrography to identify specific abnormalities.
    • Electromyographic recording of peroneal muscles during walking to detect functional deficits.
    • Assessment of treatment outcomes for both conservative and surgical interventions.

    Main Results:

    • Objective diagnostic criteria were established using arthrography and electromyography.
    • Conservative treatment achieved success in approximately two-thirds of patients.
    • Surgical intervention improved or cured 90% of the remaining patients.

    Conclusions:

    • Sinus tarsi syndrome is a well-defined clinical entity.
    • Objective diagnostic methods enhance clinical assessment.
    • Both conservative and surgical approaches offer high success rates for managing sinus tarsi syndrome.
