Abstract
Failed tarsal tunnel syndrome surgeries are better prevented than treated. Outcomes for revision procedures are significantly worse than for primaries. Failures should be treated with conservative measures first, then surgery for refractory cases. An adequate release must be ensured, and associatedpathologies must be addressed. One should consider containment procedures for adhesive neuritis and PNS for intraneural or intractable pain.
