The disorder of somatosensory systems results in impairment in on-time and efficient signaling and its upcoming postural instability. The present study aimed at investigating the effect of proprioceptive, vestibular and visual changes on posture control among the active girls with and without medial tibial stress syndrome. Materials and Methods: In this case-control study, 60 girl athletes were purposefully selected with a history of regular physical activity, among them 30 girls had medial tibial stress syndrome and others were healthy athletes. The assessment of posture during the single-leg stance test was carried out on both groups (with and without medial tibial stress syndrome) in six different sensory positions. Results: The results showed a significant difference in posture control in five different positions (opened-eye, head hyperextension, closed eyes on hard surface, closed eyes followed by head hyperextension, opened-eye and head hyperextension and closed eyes on soft surface) between athletes with medial tibial stress syndrome and healthy athletes (P=0.001). Conclusion: It seems that in the presence of the coordinated function of three senses, the posture control of the girls with a medial tibial stress syndrome is similar to healthy girls and in the absence of each of the three senses, the posture control would impair.
