“…Clinical diagnosis is usually challenging due to the unfamiliarity of this entity with clinicians and surgeons, with many differential diagnoses for plantar foot pain, including plantar fasciitis, Morton’s neuroma, sesamoiditis, plantar fibromatosis, tendon pathologies, and stress fractures, among others [ 1 , 2 , 4 ]. PVT pathogenesis is uncertain and can be idiopathic in up to 50% of cases [ 5 ], or related to local or systemic factors [ 1 , 6 , 7 , 8 ].
