- Abstract
- Management of postoperative tarsal tunnel syndrome is a perplexing problem to the surgeons. Autogenous vein wrapping graft is a effective method to decompress the tarsal tunnel. We treated 2 cases of postoperative tarsal tunnel syndrome with autogenous saphenous vein wrapping graft technique, and could get good results. Autogenous vein wrapping graft seems to be a good technique for tarsal tunnel syndrome with severe adhesion, particularly after surgery, and postoperative nerve adhesion can be prevented.
