The anterior-posterior thickness of the piriformis muscle measured by ultrasound varied widely
between individuals: from 5.8 to 11.5 mm in males
and from 4.4 to 9.6 mm in females
Pyriformis Syndrome
The most common piriformis syndrome causes are:
• Inflammation (swelling) in the piriformis or the tissues around it
• Muscle spasms
• Scarring in the muscle
When hypertrophy, inflammation, injury or anatomical variation of
the piriformis muscle results in compression of the sciatic nerve as
they both exit the pelvis through the greater sciatic notch.

Layers of deltoid ligament
SUPERFICIAL LAYER :
- Tibionavicular ligament (TNL - Tibiospring ligament (TSL)
- Tibiocalcaneal ligament (TCL) All three of these fascicles
blend with the superomedial
portion of the spring ligament
complex (SL)
Layers of deltoid ligament
DEEP LAYER :
Tibiotalar ligament (TTL) :
a small and variable anterior
tibiotalar ligament (ATTL) and a
very strong posterior tibiotalar
ligament (PTTL)
Bony landmarks.

Tarsal tunnel syndrome
Morton’s neuroma (MN) is considered a nerve
entrapment neuropathy, causing symptoms relating to impingement of the common plantar digital and
proper plantar digital nerves, such as burning, tingling or numbness
