Preferred Label : tibial neuropathy;
MeSH definition : Disease of the TIBIAL NERVE (also referred to as the posterior tibial nerve). The
most commonly associated condition is the TARSAL TUNNEL SYNDROME. However, LEG INJURIES;
ISCHEMIA; and inflammatory conditions (e.g., COLLAGEN DISEASES) may also affect the
nerve. Clinical features include PARALYSIS of plantar flexion, ankle inversion and
toe flexion as well as loss of sensation over the sole of the foot. (From Joynt, Clinical
Neurology, 1995, Ch51, p32);
