{Abstract}: <B>OBJECTIVE: </B>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.<BR><B>METHODS: </B>Retrospective study of 60 patients diagnosed with MWD in 2 tertiary hospitals of Valencia (Spain) between 2010 and 2021.<BR><B>RESULTS: </B>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.<BR><B>CONCLUSIONS: </B>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.
