Presentamos el caso de un paciente varón de 32 años con luxación cerrada de tobillo. En urgencias se realizó reducción bajo anestesia local y se inmovilizó con férula suropédica. A la semana se aplicó botín de yeso que retiramos a la 5a semana para iniciar movilizaciones activas. La carga se autorizó a la 6a semana y a los 2 meses la movilidad y la carga eran completas, pudiendo realizar a los 3.5 meses actividades de esfuerzo. Las luxaciones cerradas pueden ser tratadas ortopédicamente con una inmovilización de 5-6 semanas. La carga puede iniciarse progresivamente a partir de la sexta semana. Estas luxaciones tienen buen pronóstico funcional y una baja tasa de complicaciones.
This paper reports on a 32-year-old patient with closed luxation of the ankle. Management consisted of inmediate reduction and inmovilization in a short leg cast. A week later we applied a cat boot that we removed at the fifth week and, 2 months later, mobility and load were complete. Effort activities could be made at the 3.5 months. Closed luxations can be treated orthopedicaly with immobilization during 5-6 weeks. The load can begin progressively at the sixth week. These luxations have good functional results and a low rate of complications.
