Análisis biomecánico de la marcha en paciente con secuelas de poliomielitis y artroplastia de rodilla

Abstract: La poliomielitis es una enfermedad que puede provocar secuelas irreversibles, generando pérdida de fuerza muscular, parálisis e hiporreflexia, entre otras. Hoy en día las infecciones por poliovirus están controladas, pero se siguen tratando personas con secuelas que pueden ver afectada su calidad de vida y funciones cotidianas, tales como la marcha.

Angular deformities, external rotation of the tibia, severe valgus alignment, bone loss, narrowing of the femoral and tibial canals, diminished quadriceps strength, flexion contractures and genu recurvatum are some of the characteristics in a poliotic limb.…”
