A schwannoma is a benign, encapsulated and non-invasive tumour whose origin is derived from Schwann cells. Its incidence in the foot and ankle is rare. The etiology, incidence, clinical presentation, histology, differential diagnoses and surgical treatment are discussed. The authors present a case of a schwannoma of the tibial nerve sheath causing tarsal tunnel syndrome of the foot. The diagnosis in this case was delayed for eight years, which unfortunately is not uncommon with pedal schwannomas.
施万细胞瘤是一种良性、有包膜且非侵袭性的肿瘤，起源于施万细胞。其在足踝部的发病率很低。本文讨论了其病因、发病率、临床表现、组织学、鉴别诊断及外科治疗。作者报告了一例胫神经鞘施万细胞瘤导致足部跗管综合征的病例。该病例的诊断延误了八年，遗憾的是，足部施万细胞瘤出现这种情况并不罕见。
