The challenge of thigh tendon reinjuries: an expert opinion.

This review critically examines the issue of thigh tendon reinjury in athletes, drawing on recent advancements and diverse perspectives in sports medicine. The findings underscore the paramount importance of an early and accurate diagnosis, which significantly influences treatment efficacy and rehabilitation outcomes. We explore the intricacies of tendon anatomy and the mechanisms underlying injuries, highlighting how these factors interplay with athlete-specific risk profiles to affect reinjury rates.

Heel pain in young athletes - not always Sever's Disease: A Narrative Review.

Heel pain is a prevalent issue in young athletes, often arising from overuse and increased sporting demands. While Sever's Disease is the predominant cause, various other entities, including stress-related injuries and pathologies like tumors and bone lesions, contribute to this condition. The complex hind foot anatomy, encompassing ossicles, physis, and soft tissues, may lead to heel pain.

Managing Lower Limb Muscle Reinjuries in Athletes: From Risk Factors to Return-to-Play Strategies.

Muscle injuries and subsequent reinjuries significantly impact athletes, especially in football. These injuries lead to time loss, performance impairment, and long-term health concerns. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current understanding of muscle reinjuries, delving into their epidemiology, risk factors, clinical management, and prevention strategies.

Radiological outcome of hallux valgus deformity correction with metatarsal osteotomy from a single-center cohort - Best results achieved by foot and ankle surgeons.

Background: To evaluate the radiological outcome, especially undercorrection of hallux valgus deformity correction with first metatarsal osteotomy.

Patients And Methods: 439 1st metatarsal osteotomies including 241 distal (55 %), 175 midshaft (40 %), and 23 proximal (5 %) were available for analysis with median follow-up time was 48 days (range 27-990 days).

Results: The postoperative HVA was normal in 237 (54 %), mild in 110 (25 %), moderate in 87 (20 %), and severe in 5 (1 %) of the cases.

Long-term Outcomes of Tibial Spine Avulsion Fractures After Open Reduction With Osteosuturing Versus Arthroscopic Screw Fixation: A Multicenter Comparative Study.

Background: More information is needed regarding return to preinjury sport levels and patient-reported outcomes after tibial spine avulsion (TSA) fracture, which is most common in children aged 8 to 12 years.

Purpose: To analyze return to play/sport (RTP), subjective knee-specific recovery, and quality of life in patients after TSA fracture treated with open reduction with osteosuturing versus arthroscopic reduction with internal screw fixation.

Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3.
