Resumen

El síndrome de estrés tibial medial es una de las formas más comunes de dolor de pierna inducido por el ejercicio, a pesar de ello, aun no existe consenso para el manejo clínico. El objetivo de esta revisión es describir el estado actual del diagnóstico y tratamiento de síndrome de estrés tibial medial en deportistas. La búsqueda de artículos fue realizada en las bases PubMed, LILACs y Cochrane desde Mayo 2016 hasta Mayo de 2022. A pesar de que se han descrito números factores de riesgo, la etiología aún no está completamente establecida. El diagnóstico se basa en la historia y exploración física con una alta fiabilidad, pero se debe tener en cuenta el diagnóstico diferencial por la alta frecuencia de lesiones asociadas. Hay múltiples tratamientos descritos que incluyen modificación de la actividad, terapia física, reentrenamiento de la carrera, ortesis, nutrición para la rehabilitación, ondas de choque, proloterapia y entrenamiento neuromuscular. A pesar de varios resultados prometedores, ninguno de estos tratamientos se sustenta en evidencia científica sólida.
