Abstract

Os trigonum syndrome is one of the rare causes of posterior foot pain.trigonum, which is placed at the posterior of talus, is an accessory bone.trigonum syndrome causes back foot pain due to compression betweenand calcaneus. In this study, we present a case of os trigonum syndromewhich is a rare disease and is generally missed. A 65-year-old female patient with a complaint of left foot pain for the last 2 months persented to ourpatient clinic. In the physical examination, plantar flexion of the ankletoe was painful. Patient s pain was evaluated by the visual analog scalenoted as 8 cm. There was sensitivity at the posterior of talus during palpation. Os trigonum syndrome was diagnosed based on radiological examinations and a physical therapy program consisting of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), cold pack, foot and ankle range of motion and strength- ening exercises was started. After the treatment, pain VAS decreased to 2cm, and then the patient was followed clinically. As in our case, os trigonumdrome should also be taken into consideration in patients complainingposterior foot pain apart from other frequently encountered causes. Incases, physical therapy programs are very effective in pain managementin reducing the cost of treatment. Turk J Phys Med Rehab 2013;59:161

Özet

Os trigonum sendromu, arka ayak ağrısına sebep olan ve nadir görülen patolojilerden biridir. Os trigonum, talusun posteriorunda yer alan aksesu- ar bir kemiktir. Bu kemiğin talus ile kalkaneus arasında sıkışması sonucu arka ayak ağrısına neden olması os trigonum sendromu olarak tanımlan- maktadır. Bu yazıda tanısı sıklıkla göz ardı edilen os trigonum sendromlu bir olgu sunulmuştur. Son iki aydır sol ayağında yürümekle şiddetlenen ağrı yakınması olan 65 yaşındaki bayan hasta polikliniğimize başvurdu. Fizik muayenede ayak bileğinin ve başparmağın plantar fleksiyon hareketi ağrılıydı. Hastanın ağrısı visüel anolog skala (VAS) ile değerlendirildi ve 8 cm olarak not edildi. Palpasyon ile talusun posteriorunda hassasiyet saptandı. Radyolojik incelemeler sonucu os trigonum sendromu tanısı konularak olguya transkütanöz elektriksel sinir stimülasyonu (TENS), soğuk paket, ayak bileği ve ayak baş parmağına eklem hareket açıklığı ile güçlendirme egzersizlerinden oluşan fizik tedavi programı başlandı. Tedavi sonrasında ağrı VASı 2cme geriledi ve hasta klinik takibe alındı. Arka ayak ağrısı ile başvuran hastalarda diğer sık görülen sebeplerin yanı sıra os trigonum sendromu da göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır. Ayrıca fizik tedavi programı böyle olgularda hem ağrı kontrolü, hem de tedavi mali- yetlerinin azaltılması bakımından oldukça etkilidir. Türk Fiz T p Re­hab Derg 2013;59:161-4.
