Importancia de la presencia de os peroneum y el síndrome de fricción en el diagnóstico diferencial de la tendinopatía peronea

This study has focused on describing the relationship between the presence of Os peroneum and the development of peroneal tendinopathy caused by the existence of a friction syndrome between the sesamoid bone and the peroneus longus muscle. The subject studied was a young athlete who has diffuse burning pain in the side of the right leg. The differential diagnosis through dorsoplantar oblique radiography confirmed the presence of Os peroneum. Evaluation was made comparatively after conservative and surgical treatment through the measurement of pain with the Visual Analog Scale, the eversion range of motion of the foot using the manual goniometry and functionality using the Perceived Stress Index after the test 6 minute walking test and American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) functional rating scale. As a result, we emphasize the reduction of pain and rehabilitation to sports activity without sequelae after surgery.
