RESUMEN
Las sinostosis tarsales son uniones fi brosas, cartilaginosas u óseas entre dos o más huesos del tarso, que modifi can la biomecánica del pie y pueden producir dolor. Reportamos el caso de un paciente pediátrico con metatarsalgia bilateral al que se le diagnosticó una fusión ósea completa entre la base del cuneiforme intermedio y el segundo metatarsiano en ambos pies. Al respecto, existen escasos reportes en la literatura. Las sinostosis cuneo-metatarsianas deben ser consideradas entre los dignósticos diferenciales de la metatarsalgia en niños.
ABSTRACT
Tarsal coalitions are fi brous, cartilaginous or bony unions between two or more tarsal bones that change the biomechanics of the foot and can cause pain. We report the case of a pediatric patient with bilateral metatarsalgia, who was diagnosed with a complete osseous coalition between the second metatarsal base and the second cuneiform. There are few reports in the literature. Cuneo-metatarsal synostosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of metatarsalgia in children.
