RESUMEN
Antecedentes y objetivo: La enfermedad de Müller-Weiss (EMW) es una anomalía poco frecuente del escafoides tarsiano. Maceira y Rochera propusieron la teoría etiopatogénica más comúnmente aceptada, en la que estarían implicados factores displásicos, mecánicos y ambientales socioeconómicos. Se pretende describir las características clínicas y sociodemográficas de los pacientes de nuestro entorno con EMW, corroborar su asociación con los factores socioeconómicos descritos previamente, estimar la influencia de otros factores descritos en el desarrollo de la EMW, así como describir el tratamiento realizado. Materiales y métodos: Estudio retrospectivo de 60 pacientes diagnosticados de EMW en 2 hospitales terciarios de Valencia (España) entre los años 2010 y 2021. Resultados: Se incluyeron 60 pacientes, 21 (35,0%) hombres y 39 (65,0%) mujeres. En 29 (47,5%) casos la afectación fue bilateral. La media de edad de inicio de la sintomatología fue de 41,9±20,3 años. Durante la infancia, 36 (60,0%) pacientes sufrieron movimientos migratorios, y 26 (43,3%) problemas dentarios. La edad media de inicio laboral fue de 14,6±4,5 años. Se trataron de forma ortopédica 35 (58,3%) casos frente a 25 (41,7%) tratados quirúrgicamente, 11 (18,3%) mediante osteotomía de calcáneo y 14 (23,3%) con artrodesis. Conclusiones: Al igual que en la serie de Maceira y Rochera, encontramos una mayor prevalencia de EMW entre los nacidos alrededor de la Guerra Civil española y el periodo de movimientos migratorios masivos acontecidos en la quinta década del siglo xx. El tratamiento sigue sin estar bien establecido.(AU)
Background and aim: Müller-Weiss disease (MWD) is a rare anomaly of the tarsal scaphoid. Maceira and Rochera proposed the most commonly accepted etiopathogenic theory, in which dysplastic, mechanical, and socioeconomic environmental factors would be involved. The aim is to describe the clinical and sociodemographic characteristics of patients with MWD in our setting, corroborate their association with the socioeconomic factors previously described, estimate the influence of other factors involved in the development of MWD, and describe the treatment carried out. Materials and methods: Retrospective study of 60 patients diagnosed with MWD in 2 tertiary hospitals of Valencia (Spain) between 2010 and 2021. Results: Sixty patients were included, 21 (35.0%) men and 39 (65.0%) women. In 29 (47.5%) cases, the disease was bilateral. The mean age of onset of symptomatology was 41.9±20.3 years. During childhood, 36 (60.0%) patients suffered migratory movements, and 26 (43.3%) had dental problems. The mean age of onset was 14.6±4.5 years. Thirty-five (58.3%) cases were treated orthopedically versus 25 (41.7%) treated surgically, 11 (18.3%) by calcaneal osteotomy, and 14 (23.3%) with arthrodesis. Conclusions: As in the series of Maceira and Rochera, we found a higher prevalence of MWD among those born around the Spanish Civil War and the period of massive migratory movements that occurred in the fifth decade of the 20th century. Treatment is still not well established.(AU)
