Abdominal Wall Muscle Injuries in Athletes
AbstractPurpose of ReviewAbdominal wall muscle injuries are observed in numerous sports. This review provides the practitioner with a solid understanding of the clinical anatomy and sonoanatomy of the abdominal wall and distills key aspects of the diagnosis, triage, and management of common abdominal wall muscle injuries.Recent FindingsThe anatomy of the abdominal wall muscles is a less thought about entity for most sports medicine providers. Recent advances in the quality of ultrasound imaging allows for efficient evaluation in the office, often obliviating the need for other imaging modalities. MRI and CT remain critical...

Ultrasonographic changes of upper extremity tendons in recreational badminton players: the effect of hand dominance and comparison with clinical findings
Conclusions Although ultrasound abnormalities involving supraspinatus, biceps, lateral epicondyle showed an overall tendency of higher prevalence in the dominant arm, the result did not show significant differences according to hand dominance or clinical symptoms. Further studies with larger number of subjects are needed in the future.

Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) for Sideline Youth Sports Coverage
AbstractPurpose of ReviewThe purpose of this review is to discuss the use of point-of-care ultrasound for sideline youth sports coverage.Recent FindingsParticipation in youth sports has been increasing, with trends that athletes are specializing earlier and competing at higher levels at younger ages (NSCH 2019, Fabricant 2013). Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) utilizes non-invasive imaging to diagnose and manage various musculoskeletal conditions ranging from traumatic injuries, such as fractures and intramuscular hematomas, to early screening for conditions such as asymptomatic knee lesions. Since it is well-tolerated by ...

Diagnosis of Acute Groin Injuries: A Prospective Study of 110 Athletes
Conclusion: Adductor injuries account for the majority of acute groin injuries. Iliopsoas and proximal rectus femoris injuries are also common. More than 1 in 5 injuries showed no imaging signs of an acute injury. Clinically diagnosed adductor injuries were often confirmed on imaging, whereas iliopsoas and rectus femoris injuries showed a different radiological injury location in more than one-third of the cases. The discrepancy between clinical and radiological findings should be considered when diagnosing acute groin injuries.

Benign Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumor in a Distance Runner.
Abstract A 31-year-old female runner presented to physical therapy via direct access with an 8-month history of atraumatic left lateral calf pain. Following 1 month of physical therapy, the patient was referred to an orthopaedic sports medicine physician. Ultrasound imaging revealed a 2-cm hypoechoic mass with well-defined margins in the left proximal lateral soleus, while Doppler ultrasound demonstrated increased color flow surrounding the mass. Magnetic resonance imaging findings were consistent with a nerve sheath tumor, and ultrasound-guided tissue biopsy determined the mass to be a benign peripheral nerve she...

Ununited Bone Ossicle in a Patient With Patellar Tendinopathy.
Abstract A 40-year-old man presented to a physician for knee pain when squatting and in resisted knee extension. The initial diagnosis was patellar tendinopathy. Following physical therapy treatment, a sports medicine physician was consulted for a second opinion. Radiography, diagnostic ultrasound, and magnetic resonance imaging were performed, confirming the original diagnosis and revealing Hoffa's fat pad impingement secondary to an ununited ossicle.

Impact of Askling L-PROTOCOL on Biceps Femoris Architecture, Hamstring Flexibility and Sprint Performance
This study looks at the impact of an 8-week L-P followed by 4 weeks of detraining on the architecture of the biceps femoris long head, hamstring flexibility and sprint performance. Twenty-eight healthy individuals were divided into two groups: an experimental group, which carried out the L-P, and a control group with no training. Muscle architecture was measured using 2D ultrasound, hamstring flexibility using goniometry and sprint performance using sports radar equipment before (M1) and after (M2) the training period and after detraining (M3). No significant changes were observed between...

Regenerative Sports Medicine: Past, Present, and Future  (Adapted From the PASSOR Legacy Award Presentation; AAPMR; October 2016)
In 2008, the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (AAPMR) fully integrated the Physiatric Association of Spine, Sports, and Occupational Rehabilitation (PASSOR) and established the PASSOR legacy award. AAPMR now takes the lead in education for its membership in musculoskeletal ultrasound and regenerative medicine. During the past decade, there has been an unprecedented increase in educational offerings, hands-on training, workshops, standalone courses, and most recently a 1-year ultrasound training curriculum and certificate that is available through the AAPMR.

Sports-related extensor carpi ulnaris pathology: a review of functional anatomy, sports injury and management
The extensor carpi ulnaris (ECU) muscle plays a key role not only in the active movements of wrist extension and ulnar deviation but also in providing stability to the ulnar side of the wrist. Its position relative to the other structures in the wrist changes with forearm pronation and supination. As such, it must be mobile yet stable. The ECU tendon relies on specific stabilising structures to hold it in the correct positions to perform its different functions. These structures can be injured in a variety of different athletic activities such as tennis, golf and rugby league, yet their injury and disruption is predictable...
