Lesiones de cadera relacionadas con la actividad deportiva / Sports-Related Hip Injuries

Introducción: Las lesiones de la cadera relacionadas con las actividades deportivas han sido poco abordadas; sin embargo, han ido en aumento y su diagnóstico suele ser difícil o retardado. Incluyen múltiples afecciones y su recuperación suele ser larga. Objetivo: Actualizar conocimientos sobre algunas de las afecciones deportivas que afectan la cadera. Métodos: Se realiza una revisión bibliográfica sistemática y detallada sobre el tema, para lo cual se emplearon métodos teóricos, analítico-sintético, histórico-lógico e inductivo-deductivo y el análisis documental como método empírico. Se hizo una búsqueda sistemática sobre la temática en las bases de datos PubMed, Medscape y Google Academics desde junio de 2016 hasta la fecha. Se revisaron 500 artículos referentes al tema, de los cuales se seleccionaron 45 artículos para este trabajo. Análisis y síntesis de la información: Las lesiones de la cadera relacionadas con el deporte ocurren entre 5 y 9 por ciento de atletas adultos. Las actividades con movimientos rápidos, aceleraciones, desaceleraciones, y los cambios direccionales son la principal causa de tales lesiones. Provocan daños corporales provocados por una transferencia de energía, que excede la capacidad para mantener la estructura y/o la función íntegra, durante el entrenamiento o competición. Conclusiones: Las lesiones de la cadera relacionadas con el deporte pueden ser múltiples y son responsables de dolor en un gran número de atletas, fundamentalmente en el fútbol, la gimnasia y el beisbol. El diagnóstico precoz es fundamental para evitar la progresión de la lesión. Las mejoras en el diagnóstico radiológico y las posibilidades del uso de la artroscopia han mejorado la evolución y el pronóstico para los atletas(AU)

Introduction: Sports injuries of the hip have been little addressed; however, they have been increasing and their diagnosis is often difficult or delayed. They include multiple conditions and their recovery is usually long. Objective: To bring up to date knowledge on some of the sports conditions that affect the hip, which is particularly important to improve medical care. Methods: A systematic and detailed bibliographic review is carried out on the subject, for which theoretical, analytical-synthetic, historical-logical and inductive-deductive methods were used, as well as documentary analysis as an empirical method. A systematic search on the subject was carried out in PubMed, Medscape and Google Academics databases from June 2016 to date. Five hundred articles referring to the topic were reviewed. Forty-five articles the total were selected for this paper. Analysis and synthesis of the information: Sports-related hip injuries occur between 5 and 9 percent of adult athletes. Activities with rapid movements, accelerations, decelerations, and directional changes are the main cause of such injuries. They cause bodily harm produced by a transfer of energy, which exceeds the capacity to maintain the entire structure and, or function, during training or competition. Conclusions: Sports injuries of the hip can be multiple and are responsible for pain in a large number of athletes, mainly in soccer, gymnastics and baseball. Early diagnosis is essential to avoid progression of the lesion. Improvements in radiological diagnosis and the possibilities of the use of arthroscopy have improved the evolution and prognosis for athletes(AU)

ABSTRACT Introduction: Although the positive effects of physical activity on global health are well documented, sports practice is associated with a greater risk of injury; in professional soccer in particular, the risk is substantial. Objective: The primary objective of this study was to investigate the incidence of injuries among male athletes competing in the regional soccer championship. The secondary objective was to determine the prevalence of injuries. Methods: In this prospective cohort study, level of evidence II, the incidence and prevalence of injuries were assessed using an adapted version of the UEFA Champions League Study questionnaire. Results: This study included 310 male athletes from ten teams, aged 26.53±4.75 years, height 180.93±6.49 cm, and weight 79.32±8.29 kg, with a 4-month follow-up. Ninety-two injuries were recorded, representing a prevalence of 29.68% injuries. The body part most frequently injured was the lower limbs (86.9%). The main types of injuries were muscle tear/strain (37.0%), sprain/ligament (19.6%), and other injuries (14.1%). The injuries were mainly caused during run/sprint (33.7%), kick (12.0%) and jumping/landing (6.5%). The incidences of injuries were 15.88±8.57, 2.04±1.09, and 3.65±1.50 injuries/1000h of exposure during matches, training, and matches/training, respectively. Time-loss over the season was between 1 and 50 days, and the severity of the injuries was as follows: light (25%), minor (22.8%), moderate (43.5%) and severe (8.7%). Conclusion: This study suggests that there is a higher incidence of injuries during matches compared to training, among male regional soccer championship players. The lower limbs are the body part most affected, with a higher prevalence of rupture/strain in the thigh region, during running/sprinting. Level of evidence II; Prospective Cohort Study .

Application of chen yuangao in the treatment of soft tissue injury of football players / Aplicação de chen yuangao no tratamento da lesão dos tecidos moles de jogadores de futebol / Aplicación de chen yuangao para tratar lesiones de tejidos blandos en jugadores de fútbol

ABSTRACT The treatment of soft tissue injury in football players generally includes physical therapy, anti-inflammatory and analgesic drug treatment, surgical treatment and early rest immobilization. Western medicine treatment of soft tissue injury can quickly heal the wound and relieve pain in a short time. The treatment of traditional Chinese medicine is based on the whole and must seek the root of the disease. It is believed that the occurrence of certain diseases is related to Qi, blood, liver and kidney deficiency, so we should pay attention to the overall adjustment during treatment of symptoms. In view of this, this study analyzed the effect of Chen Yuan ointment, from traditional Chinese medicine, in the treatment of soft tissue injury. Sixty-eight football players who completed ankle ligament reconstruction were divided into four groups according to the type of operation and whether Chen Yuangao-assisted rehabilitation was used or not. The results showed that the Ankle Hindfoot Function Score and the visual analog scale (VAS) score of patients in the fibula brevis tendon reconstruction Chen Yuan ointment group were 98.3 and 0.3, respectively, at the last follow-up, which were better than those in other groups, and had lower pain scores. This result shows that Chen Yuangao has a certain effect in the treatment of soft tissue injury, which can provide a research idea for the rapid rehabilitation of football players.

RESUMO O tratamento de lesões dos tecidos moles em jogadores de futebol inclui geralmente terapia física, tratamento anti-inflamatório e analgésico, tratamento cirúrgico e imobilização de repouso precoce. O tratamento de lesões nos tecidos moles, utilizando a medicina ocidental, pode curar rapidamente as lesões e aliviar a dor em pouco tempo. A medicina tradicional chinesa se baseia no todo e deve procurar a raiz da doença. Acredita-se que a ocorrência de certas doenças está relacionada à deficiência de Qi, sangue, fígado e rim do corpo humano, por isso devemos prestar atenção ao ajuste global no tratamento dos sintomas. A partir desta perspectiva, este estudo analisou o efeito da tradicional pomada chinesa Chen Yuan no tratamento de lesões dos tecidos moles. No total, 68 jogadores de futebol que fizeram reconstrução dos ligamentos do tornozelo foram divididos em quatro grupos de acordo com o tipo de operação e se a pomada Chen Yuangao ajudou ou não na reabilitação. Os resultados mostraram que o escore da função do tornozelo retropé (Ankle Hindfoot Function Score) e o escore da Escala Analógica Visual (EVA) dos pacientes do grupo pomada Chenyuan para reconstrução do tendão fibular curto foram 98,3 e 0,3, respectivamente, no último seguimento, sendo melhores do que os de outros grupos e apresentando menores níveis de dor. Estes resultados mostra que a pomada Chen Yuangao exerce certo efeito no tratamento de lesões dos tecidos moles, pode constituir uma ideia de pesquisa para a rápida reabilitação dos jogadores de futebol.

El registro de la cantidad y el tipo de lesiones que padecen los jugadores que conforman un plantel profesional permite al cuerpo técnico y al cuerpo médico desarrollar estrategias preventivas y de tratamiento, con la finalidad de disminuir la incidencia de lesiones. Hemos recopilado las consultas médicas por lesión ocurridas durante 27 meses, donde el mismo cuerpo técnico entrenó a un total de 65 jugadores durante 818 horas, sumando 703 horas en entrenamientos y 115 horas en partidos oficiales. Fueron registradas 229 lesiones, de las cuales 169 se produjeron durante los entrenamientos y 60 ocurrieron en partidos oficiales. Así obtuvimos una incidencia de lesiones global de 4,31 por cada 1.000 horas de exposición, siendo en entrenamientos de 3,69 cada 1.000 horas de exposición y en partidos oficiales de 9,84 por cada 1.000 horas de exposición. La amplia mayoría de las lesiones fueron de grado I: 86,9%. Las de grado II fueron el 9,2% y las grado III fueron sólo el 3,9%. Hallamos un porcentaje elevado de lesiones músculo-tendinosas: 55% del total. Un 36,3% fueron de origen articular-ligamentario y un 8,7% óseas. Nuestra incidencia de lesiones está por debajo de la media internacional, tanto para los entrenamientos como para la competencia. La gravedad de las lesiones ha sido un punto a favor, con una incidencia de lesiones graves muy baja y un promedio de días de baja por jugador también muy bajo

Intra and inter-rater agreement of the Dynamic Movement Assessment ™ Agreement of the DMA™

Abstract Aims: To investigate the inter-and intra-rater agreement of the Dynamic Movement Assessment (DMA™) risk classification. Method: In this study, after the anthropometric measurements were made, 17 female soccer athletes were filmed performing the six DMA™ tests (full squat, step-up, single-leg squat, jump test, test plank, and side plank). Both, major and secondary deviations, were observed during the tests. Two experienced health professionals performed video analysis using Kinovea 8.15.0 (inter-rater agreement). To assess the intra-rater agreement, the same video analysis was performed two months later. Participants were rated from 0 to 21 points and at low, medium, moderate, and high risk of developing musculoskeletal injuries. To assess the reliability of the assessment of movement patterns of DMA, the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was performed with a 2-way random-effects model with an absolute agreement (inter-rater) and a 2-way mixed-effects model and consistency (intra-rater). Weighted Kappa Agreement Analysis (kw) was performed with linear weights to assess the level of agreement related to the risk classification of DMA (high, moderate, medium, or minimum). The Analysis was performed with StatsDirect v.3 and SPSS (23.0). Results: Comparing the number of points between the inter-and intra-rater, the ICC was 0.91 (95% CI = 0.74-0.97) and 0.84 (95% CI = 0.59-0.94), respectively, with kw = 0.46 (P = 0.02) intra -rater and kw = 0.46 (P = 0.006) inter-rater (Table 9). Conclusion: DMA has excellent inter-and intra-rater reliability to evaluate movement patterns and classify the risk of musculoskeletal injuries.

Tratamiento quirúrgico de avulsión crónica proximal de isquiotibiales en deportista juvenil con fisis abiertas / Surgical treatment of proximal chronic avulsion hamstring injuries in young athlete with open physis

Introducción: Durante la práctica deportiva se realizan movimientos explosivos de gran intensidad, uno de los gestos más frecuentes en el fútbol es el remate. En ese momento se efectúan movimientos excéntricos/concéntricos entre grupos agonistas (cuádriceps) y antagonistas (isquiotibiales) pudiendo producir lesiones en la pelvis. Una de las más graves es la avulsión o arrancamiento parcial o total del fragmento óseo del isquion en deportistas juveniles con fisis abiertas. Hay que tener en cuenta que es una lesión poco frecuente y grave la cual provoca una incapacidad funcional significativa acompañada de dolor residual en los deportistas jóvenes, y en algunos casos se asocia con la formación de osificación heterotópica; la cual puede requerir tratamiento quirúrgico para lograr un retorno deportivo a un nivel prelesional. El objetivo de este trabajo es reportar el caso de un jugador de fútbol juvenil con lesión avulsiva proximal de isquiosurales durante un gesto deportivo por mecanismo indirecto

Introduction: Proximal hamstring injuries during an abrupt eccentric gesture may involve partial or complete avulsion of the ischium bone fragment in young athletes with open physis. It is an infrequent but serious injury that causes a significant functional disability accompanied by residual pain in young athletes, and in some cases is associated with the formation of heterotopic ossification, which may require surgical treatment. The objective of this article is to report a case of youth soccer player with proximal avulsed hamstring injury doing a sporting gesture by indirect mechanism

Anterior cruciate ligament and meniscal injuries in sports: incidence, time of practice until injury, and limitations caused after trauma / Lesões do ligamento cruzado anterior e do menisco no esporte: incidência, tempo de prática até a lesão e limitações causadas pelo trauma

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: To analyze the incidence of ACL and meniscal injuries in a population of recreational and elite athletes from Brazil and the relation of these injuries with their sports activities. METHODS: This was a prospective observational study of 240 patients with ACL and/or meniscal injuries submitted to surgical treatment. Data of patients and sport modality, as well as Tegner score were registered in the first clinical evaluation. The patients were divided into three groups: (1) isolated rupture of the ACL; (2) ACL injury associated with meniscal injury; (3) isolated menisci injury. RESULTS: The majority of the patients belonged to group 1 (44.58%), followed by group 2 (30.2%) and 3 (25%). Most patients were soccer players. The mean time from sport practice to injury in group 1 was 17.81 years. In group 2, it was 17.3 years, and in group 3, 26.91 years. Soccer athletes presented ACL injury in 0.523/1000 h of practice and meniscal injury in 0.448/1000 h of practice. Before the injury, the mean Tegner score obtained for groups 1, 2, and 3 were 7.18, 7.34, and 6.53, respectively. After knee injury, those values were 3.07, 3.18, and 2.87, respectively. CONCLUSION: Soccer was the sport that caused the majority of lesions, regardless the group. Furthermore, patients from groups 1 and 2 had less time of practice prior to the injury (17.81 and 17.3 years) than the patients of group 3 (26.91 years). Women presented a higher risk to develop ACL and meniscal injuries in 1000 h of game/practice. Running, volleyball, and weightlifting are in ascending order of risk for ACL and/or meniscal injury. Regarding the return to sport practice, the efficiency of all athletes was impaired because of the injury.

RESUMO OBJETIVO: Avaliar a incidência da lesão do LCA e dos meniscos numa população de atletas amadores e profissionais no Brasil e a relação destas lesões com o esporte praticado. MÉTODOS: Estudo prospectivo observacional de 240 pacientes com lesão meniscoligamentar do joelho desencadeada por diversas atividades esportivas. Dados dos pacientes, do esporte praticado e do questionário de Tegner foram registrados na primeira avaliação clínica. Os pacientes foram divididos em grupos: 1) lesão isolada do LCA; 2) lesão do LCA associada a lesão meniscal; 3) lesão meniscal isolada. RESULTADOS: A maioria dos pacientes pertencia ao grupo 1 (44,58%), seguido pelos grupos 2 (30,2%) e 3 (25%). O tempo médio de prática esportiva para gerar lesão foi de 17,81 anos no grupo 1, 17,3 no grupo 2 e 26,91 no grupo 3. Atletas de futebol apresentaram lesão de LCA em 0,523/1000 horas de jogo e de lesões meniscais em 0,448/1000 horas de jogo. Antes da lesão, a média de pontos obtidos no questionário de Tegner para os pacientes do grupo 1, 2 e 3 foram de 7,18, 7,34, e 6,53. Após a lesão, este valor caiu para 3,07, 3,18, e 2,87 respectivamente. CONCLUSÕES: A modalidade esportiva mais praticada foi o futebol e causou o maior número de lesões, independente do grupo. Além disso, pacientes do grupo 1 e 2 levaram menos tempo de prática do que os do grupo 3 para sofrerem lesões. As mulheres apresentaram maior risco de lesões de LCA e meniscos por 1000 horas de treino/jogo. Corrida, voleibol e academia estão em ordem crescente de riscos de lesões meniscoligamentares. Quando avaliado o retorno ao esporte, o rendimento de todos os atletas foi prejudicado pela lesão.

Comparación de protocolos de rehabilitación en cirugía del ligamento cruzado anterior con tendón patelar en jugadores profesionales de fútbol / Rehabilitation protocols comparison after ACL reconstruction using patellar tendon in professional soccer players

Objetivo: El presente estudio investigó la influencia entre 2 protocolos de rehabilitación (agresivo y no agresivo) en los resultados después de la reconstrucción del LCA utilizando autoinjertos de tendón patelar en futbolistas profesionales. Métodos: Se efectuó un estudio prospectivo ramdomizado incluyendo 84 pacientes divididos en dos grupos iguales tratados con 2 protocolos de rehabilitación diferentes: Agresivo y No Agresivo, en el postoperatorio. A los 3 años de seguimiento, se realizó una evaluación compuesta por el score IKDC, la medición KT 1000 y las imágenes de RM. Se utilizó la prueba t para muestras independientes y pareadas y la prueba de Chi-cuadrado de Pearson para el análisis estadístico (p / 0,05). Resultados: Sólo 69,04% (N = 58) de los pacientes fueron examinados a los 3 años después de la operación. Los resultados del score IKDC del grupo de rehabilitación NO agresiva (A 55%, B 35%, C 10%; del grupo de rehabilitación Agresiva A 52%, B 35%, C 13%) y la medición instrumental de la laxitud anteroposterior con artrómetro KT1000 (no agresivo 0.5 ± 2,1 mm, agresivo 0,9 ± 3,2 mm) no mostraron diferencias significativas. Se encontraron diferencias en las imágenes de RM entre ambos grupos obtenidas durante el postoperatorio inmediato y a 3 años de seguimiento. Con el protocolo Agresivo de rehabilitación se observó un aumento en la densidad y pérdida de nitidez del neoligamento, además de una diferencia significativa en el ensanchamiento de los túneles óseos y mayor sinovitis en relación al grupo que recibió un protocolo No Agresivo de rehabilitación. Conclusión: La rehabilitación postoperatoria con un protocolo agresivo de rehabilitación después de la reconstrucción del LCA presenta buenos resultados funcionales con imágenes alteradas de RM a 3 años después de la reconstrucción del LCA con tendón patelar en jugadores profesionales de fútbol.

Purpose: The current study investigated the influence of two-rehabilitation protocol (aggressive and no aggressive) in the results after ACL reconstruction using patellar tendon autografts in professional soccer players. Methods: A prospective randomized study was initiated including 84 patients divided into two equal groups treated with or without an aggressive rehabilitation protocol Post-operatively. A 3 years follow-up examination comprised the IKDC score, KT1000 measurement and MR images. The t test for independent and paired samples and the Pearson’s Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis (p/0.05). Results: Only 69,04% (N=58) of the patients were examined 3 years post-operatively. IKDC, non-aggressive rehabilitation protocol group results (A 55 %, B 35 %, C 10 %; aggressive rehabilitation protocol group A 52 %, B 35 %, C 13%) and instrumental measurement of anteroposterior laxity with KT1000 (non aggressive 0.5 ± 2.1 mm, aggressive 0.9± 3.2 mm) showed no significant differences. There were MRI differences between the groups concerning heterogeneous images signal, continuity, and tunnel widening and synovitis findings in the aggressive rehabilitation protocol group. Conclusion: Post-operative rehabilitation with an aggressive protocol after ACL reconstruction present good functional results with poor images of MR 3 years post reconstruction of ACL with patellar tendon in professional soccer players.

Thoracolumbar Chance fracture during a professional female soccer game: case report / Fratura toracolombar tipo Chance durante jogo de futebol feminino profissional: relato de caso

ABSTRACT We report a rare case of an unstable flexion-distraction spine fracture with ligament involvement that occurred during a professional female soccer game. There were no neurological déficit. The patient had a painful midline gap which suggested ligamentar injury that was not immediately recognized. Despite that, proper immobilization and referral to hospital for further evaluation avoided additional spinal cord damage. The patient underwent a monosegmental posterior instrumentation spine fusion and after 6 months returned to professional soccer activities. This paper alerts to the possibility of occurrence of severe and unstable spine injuries during soccer practice and the importance of an adequate initial care at the game field in order to avoid iatrogenic neurological injuries.

RESUMO Relatamos um caso raro de fratura instável da coluna vertebral com envolvimento ligamentar, ocorrida por mecanismo de flexão-distração, durante jogo de futebol feminino profissional. Não houve déficit neurológico. A paciente apresentava espaçamento doloroso dorsal na linha média, que sugeriu lesão ligamentar, a qual não foi reconhecida imediatamente. Apesar disso, realizaram-se imobilização adequada e encaminhamento para unidade hospitalar, fatos que evitaram a ocorrência de danos adicionais à medula espinal. A paciente foi submetida à fusão monossegmentar, com instrumentação e, após 6 meses, retornou à prática de futebol profissional. O presente estudo alerta para a possibilidade de ocorrência de lesões graves e instáveis na coluna durante a prática de futebol, e para importância da assistência inicial adequada ainda em campo, a fim de evitar lesões neurológicas iatrogênicas.

Alterações ultrassonográficas do ligamento patelar em jogadores de futebol assintomáticos / Echogenicity changes of patellar ligament in asymptomatic soccer players

Introdução: O ligamento patelar é a estrutura do joelho que liga a patela à tíbia. As lesões desta estrutura fazem parte de um grupo maior de doenças que causam o que os ortopedistas denominam como "dor anterior do joelho". Devido a isso, as lesões do ligamento patelar por trauma repetitivo receberam o nome genérico de "joelho do saltador". O objetivo geral do estudo foi avaliar o ligamento patelar de jogadores profissionais de futebol, assintomáticos, através da ultrassonografia. Métodos: A amostra foi de 52 jogadores profissionais de futebol que passaram pelo exame de ultrassonografia. Resultados: No total, 52 jogadores foram incluídos no estudo com idade média de 23 anos (DP±4,95), com um tempo de prática médio no esporte de 9,35 anos (DP±3,71). A média de tempo de prática esportiva dos jogadores que não tiveram lesão foi de 10,14 anos (DP±3,71), enquanto a média dos jogadores que tiveram lesão foi de 5 anos (DP±0,76). Dos jogadores que tiveram lesão, a maioria, 24,1%, era de defensores, enquanto apenas 4,3% eram atacantes. Conclusões: O tempo médio de treinamento nos jogadores que tiveram lesão foi menor do que naqueles que não tiveram nenhuma anomalia encontrada. Os defensores tiveram mais lesões que os atacantes (AU)

Introduction: The patellar ligament is the structure of the knee that connects the patella to the tibia. Lesions of this structure belong to a larger group of diseases that cause what orthopedists refer to as "knee anterior pain". Because of this, the patellar ligament injuries due to repetitive trauma received the generic name of "jumper's knee". The overall objective of the study was to evaluate the patellar ligament of asymptomatic professional soccer players through ultrasound. Methods: The sample consisted of 52 professional soccer players who underwent an ultrasound examination. Results: In total, 52 players were included in the study with an average age of 23 years (SD ± 4.95), with an average practice time of 9.35 years in the sport (SD ± 3.71). The average time of sports practice of players who had no injury was 10.14 years (SD ± 3.71), while the average in those who had injury was 5 years (SD ± 0.76). Of the players who had injury, most (24.1%) were defenders while only 4.3% were forwards. Conclusions: The average training time in players who had injury was smaller than in those who had no abnormality. Defenders had more injuries than forwards did (AU)

Early osteoarthritis and reduced quality of life after retirement in former professional soccer players

OBJECTIVES: This study aims to compare the prevalence of osteoarthritis in two groups: one comprising former professional soccer players and the other comprising non-professional-athlete participants. METHODS: Twenty-seven male former professional soccer players and 30 male volunteers from different non-sports professional areas participated in the study. All participants underwent bilateral knee radiography and magnetic resonance imaging. In addition, the quality of life, knee pain and joint function were evaluated and compared using questionnaires given to all participants in both groups. Specific knee evaluations, with regard to osteoarthritis and quality of life, were performed in both groups using the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score subjective questionnaires and the Short-form 36. The chi-squared test, Fisher's exact test, the Mann-Whitney U test and Student's t-test were used for group comparisons. RESULTS: The between-groups comparison revealed significant differences in the following: pain, symptoms and quality of life related to the knee in the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score subscales; the physical aspects subscale of the SF-36; total whole-organ magnetic resonance imaging scores with regard to the dominant and non-dominant knees. Former soccer players had worse scores than the controls in all comparisons. CONCLUSIONS: Both the clinical and magnetic resonance evaluations and the group comparisons performed in this study revealed that former soccer players have a worse quality of life than that of a control group with regard to physical aspects related to the knee; these aspects include greater pain, increased symptoms and substantial changes in radiographic and magnetic resonance images of the knee. .
