Resumen

El síndrome del seno del tarso es una entidad bien definida clínicamente y de fácil diagnóstico y tratamiento médico. Se manifiesta por la presencia de dolor e inestabilidad de la parte posterior del talón. En la mayoría de los casos se produce tras una entorsis de tobillo, pero puede aparecer en el transcurso de enfermedades inflamatorias, degenerativas o metabólicas. La exploración complementaria más útil para el diagnóstico es la resonancia magnética. El tratamiento más eficaz son las infiltraciones de corticoides en el interior del seno. Pocas veces es necesario el tratamiento quirúrgico.

Palabras clave:

Abstract

Sinus tarsus syndrome is a clearly defined entity and has an easy diagnosis and a simple medical treatment. It is characterized by pain and inestabiliy in the back heel. In most cases it appears after an ankle sprain, but it is also present in some inflammatory, degenerative and metabolic illnesses. The most useful complementary test is magnetic resonance imaging. The most practical treatment is corticoid injection in the incide of the sinus. Surgical treatment is only necessary on very few occasions.

Key words:

Sinus tarsus syndrome
