Abstract
El esguince de tobillo es una de las lesiones musculoesqueléticas más frecuentes en la edad pediátrica y constituye un motivo habitual de consulta en los servicios de urgencias. A pesar de su elevada incidencia, existe una notable escasez de evidencia específica sobre el tratamiento más adecuado en esta población. En ausencia de estudios dirigidos específicamente a niños, las recomendaciones actuales se basan en la extrapolación de resultados procedentes de estudios realizados en adultos. Aunque en los últimos años se ha observado una tendencia creciente hacia intervenciones menos restrictivas, con un mayor énfasis en la movilización precoz, hasta la fecha no se ha evaluado de forma sistemática la posibilidad de no aplicar ningún tipo de inmovilización tras un esguince de tobillo en población pediátrica...
Ankle sprain is one of the most common musculoskeletal injuries in the pediatric population and represents a frequent reason for consultation in emergency departments. Despite its high incidence, there is a significant lack of specific evidence regarding the most appropriate treatment for this condition in children. In the absence of studies specifically targeting this age group, current recommendations are generally extrapolated from studies conducted in adult populations. Although recent years have seen a growing trend toward less restrictive interventions—emphasizing early mobilization—the possibility of completely avoiding immobilization after an ankle sprain in children has not yet been systematically evaluated...
