ABSTRACT

Introducción: La lesion del ligamento cruzado anterior (LCA) es una de las patologias musculoesqueleticas mas frecuentes. Numerosos factores predisponentes han sido identificados intrinsecamente en la articulacion. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la relacion existente entre una hipomotilidad de cadera y la presencia concomitante de una lesion de LCA en deportistas recreacionales. Materiales y Método: Se incluyo en forma prospectiva a pacientes deportistas recreacionales entre 18 y 40 anos (48 con una lesion primaria de LCA confirmada por RMN y 53 controles voluntarios). Se midieron ambas rotaciones en decubito supino y los resultados fueron analizados estadisticamente con la prueba de t test. Resultados: Se analizaron los datos y resultaron estadisticamente significativos en cuanto a una disminucion de movilidad en la cadera homolateral a la rodilla afectada por la lesion del ligamento, tanto para la rotacion interna [RI] (p=0.001) como para la rotacion externa [RE] (p=0.016). El analisis comparativo con el grupo control mostro que existe una asociacion entre rotura de LCA y una hipomotilidad de cadera a expensas en mayor medida de una disminucion en la RI (p=0,002), puesto que la comparacion de la RE en ambos grupos no resulta estadisticamente significativa (p=0.936). Conclusión: Existe una fuerte asociacion entre la lesion del LCA y hipomotilidad de la cadera, principalmente a expensas de la rotacion interna en deportistas recreacionales. No solo encontramos esta asociacion entre voluntarios y pacientes con la lesion sino tambien en el miembro contralateral a la lesion LCA. Por tal motivo creemos de vital importancia el cribado de factores de riesgo para asi implementar planes de prevencion. Nivel de Evidencia: II. Tipo de Estudio: Prospectivo...


Introduction: Numerous intrinsic predisposing factors have been identified within the knee joint in ACL injuries. However, several studies have showed the influence of the hip on the knee biomechanics. The aim of this paper is to analyze the relationship between a hip hypomotility and the concomitant presence of an ACL injury in recreational athletes. Method: We prospectively evaluated 48 recreational athletes with ACL injury confirmed with MRI and 53 volunteer controls without ACL injuries between 18 and 40 years of age. Internal rotation [IR] and external rotation [ER] were measured and analyzed. Results: A significant decrease in hip range of motion was found in the ipsilateral hip, both for IR (p=0.001) and ER (p=0.016). Comparative analysis with the control group showed an association between ACL tear and hypomotility hip mainly because of IR lessening (p=0.002), since the comparison of the ER in both groups was not statistically significant (p=0.936). Conclusion: There is a strong association between ACL injury and hip hypomotility , not only but mainly due to a decrease in IR. Moreover, we found not only this association between volunteers and patients, but in the same patient compared to the unaffected side. Therefore, we believe that is especially important to identify risk factors in order to prevent these lesions. Level of Evidence: IV. Type of study: Case Series. Retrospective...
