This session aims to explore the relationship between lower limb biomechanics and the presence of knee valgus, as well as the occurrence of pain and weight distribution in the plantar region. The study included 101 volunteers between the ages of 6 and 12 with normal cognition and no musculoskeletal changes that could affect the results.
 The participants were evaluated for intermaleolar distance, angle of frontal knee projection, plantar weight discharge, ankle dorsiflexion, pelvic fall, and trunk inclination during a unipodal squat. The results showed that intermaleolar distance did not correlate significantly with ankle dorsiflexion amplitude, and there was no association between pain and the occurrence of valgus. Furthermore, plantar weight discharge did not have a significant correlation with BMI, ankle dorsiflexion, or pain.
 The analysis of plantar weight distribution showed that the majority of participants had a neutral step, with only a small percentage having a flat weight discharge. Interestingly, some individuals who had valgus did not report any pain, indicating that the presence of knee valgus does not necessarily lead to discomfort in the lower limbs.
 To evaluate the relationship between intermaleolar distance and the frontal knee projection angle, self-adhesive markers were used to assess the presence of knee valgus during a single-legged squat. The range of motion of ankle dorsiflexion was measured using the goniometry technique, and statistical analysis was performed using ANOVA with a significance level of 5%.
 Overall, this study sheds light on the complex biomechanics of the lower limbs and highlights the importance of a comprehensive evaluation of the different variables that affect lower limb function. The findings of this study could have important implications for the prevention and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders in children and could inform future research in this area.
