Haglund’s syndrome is a mechanical disorder characterized by inflammation of the retrocalcaneal bursa, supra-calcaneal bursa, and Achilles’ tendon due to friction between the prominent posterosuperior tuberosity of the calcaneus and footwear. Diagnosis usually relies on clinical assessment and lateral ankle radiography. This article presents a case study of a 52-year-old female patient with Haglund’s syndrome, accompanied by illustrative images and a review of existing literature.
