Foreword I

Looking back, the preparation of this book was an extremely exciting and longjourney which started during the fifth EFOST meeting in 2008. The firstedition of the book was a product of sleepless hours and the valuable effortof more than 300 scientists from all around the world. We are back with astronger staff presenting a more comprehensive and a higher level of science tothe reader. Similar to the first edition, we tried to integrate the eastern andwestern science in the lands of history where far eastern culture meets the west,both geographically and socioculturally.

Although we have come a long way since Watanabe performed the firstarthroscopy, I believe the human body still has many unexplored mysteriesforcing us to dig deeper into the vast well of science more and more every day.Each author in the book contributed their years of experience under this unifiedbelief. It is a fact that sports traumatology and sports-related injury surgery arerising branches of orthopedics since the required performance of high-levelathletes has inflated dramatically over the last decade. The fact that scientificimprovements in sports traumatology is turning into a whole new sector isespecially striking when one realizes the financial and global significance ofjust how much even one day of early recovery is vital for a team or anindividual’s career. Therefore, we aimed to prepare a practical guide for sportstraumatologists, clinicians, and physiotherapists by gathering current con-cepts, treatment modalities, surgical techniques, and rehabilitation protocolstogether as much as possible. In addition to proved classical treatmentmethods, contemporary techniques and innovative ideas were provided asclear as possible for the reader. My hope is that the articles in the “Future ofSports Traumatology” section will probe the readers’ imagination to createnew and original ideas.

The book in your hands is the great labor of people all around the world.I am grateful to everyone who provided me with encouragement, friendship,wisdom, and patience. I have to thank first Prof. Jon Karlsson. His unbeliev-able and meticulous dedication to editing and preparing the index for the bookin the last 3 years was extremely crucial to the success of our work.

Thereafter, I would like to express my gratitude to all national and interna-tional authors who poured their valuable experiences as well as the Springerteam – Gabriele Schroeder and her coworkers.

I would like to thank my wife, Esra, my daughter, Ceyla, my son-in-law,Coşku, and my precious parents for their lifelong support. Thanks to my

teachers Prof. Dr. T. Göğ€us and Prof. Dr. R. Ege, who introduced Turkishorthopedics to the world, and my colleagues and my fellow scientists whotrusted me.

Special thanks to my executive assistant editor, Dr. G Dönmez, and to mycoworkers Dr. E. Turhan, Dr. G. Huri, and Dr. O. Bilge.

It will be the most valuable gift and the best source of motivation for me toknow that this work in your hands will guide you in some way by expandingyour vision.

It should not be forgotten that we orthopedic surgeons should evaluate theparts of the human body as a whole, not in components, as the human bodyworks with dynamic and static stabilizers. For example, we focus mostly onthe anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), but we should remember that there aremore ligaments other than the ACL in the knee joint.

Please keep in mind that science has no religion, no language, no race, nocolor, and no flag. Scientific observation is the central element of the scientificmethod.

My deepest regards,Dr. Mahmut Nedim DoralIstanbul, Turkey

Foreword II

Why a new book on sports-related injuries? And don’t we have enough books?And do we have enough readers for all these books?

I would like to answer these three questions simply by saying that this is aunique book. It is not only sports traumatology, arthroscopic techniques,advanced techniques and how to deal with injuries in well-equipped orthopae-dic clinics. This book has it all; it is about sports, sports-related injuries, how toavoid them and how to treat them. It also covers unusual issues like extremesports and how to deal with abdomen and chest injuries. It covers the entireathlete, not only injuries but also general health, heart conditions as well asknee injuries.

This is the main reason why this book is needed. We have worked on thisproject for many years now, and now we have this complete and unique book,a book that covers every aspect of the athlete’s life and career. This book istherefore like no other book; it is comprehensive, and it gives the reader abroad picture of sports-related injuries and diseases, how to prevent them andhow to treat them.

This is a good opportunity to thank everyone who has been involved andhelped us to carry this project through. First of all, I would like to thank myco-editor, Mahmut Nedim Doral, a writer, a doctor, a researcher and a verydear friend. Second, all the Section Editors and Associate Editors and all thosewho have contributed with their invaluable knowledge. I would also like tothank Springer Verlag, especially Gabrielle Schröder, Vasowati Shome andAudrey Wong for their help in putting the manuscripts together. I would alsolike to thank those who helped me with keeping track of all chapters, authorsand all corrections – Borgthór Ásgeirsson and Lára Lamb – for theirinvaluable help.

I hope the readers will enjoy the book!

Preface I

Sports medicine and sports traumatology have gained great social importancein the last 50 years.

Prevention comes first, but improvement in the treatment of sports injuriesis also of great benefit to general trauma patients with a range of commoninjuries and injuries caused by traffic accidents.

Competition is inherent in human nature and is a fact of life, including forreproduction and evolution in general. Civilized nations now look moretowards gaining prestige via the results of individual and team sports ratherthan from war activities to demonstrate their actual power and might.

During the Olympic Games in the holy district of Zeus in Olympia in824 BC, the war between the competing ancient Greek towns was stopped infavor of competition between the athletes. As the games evolved, the greatevent of the games was celebrated with running, jumping, throwing of discsand spears, boxing, wrestling, and chariot races.

As early as 2,500 years ago, sports medicine existed. Herodikos(or Herodicus) from Knidos (Cnidus), born in 500 BC, was famous for treatingOlympionikes (Olympia Winners) in Olympian Athletes. He lived 40 yearsbefore Hippokrates (Hippocrates) of Kos.

More than 1,000 years later, fighting competitions such as knight tourna-ments in Europe, with fencing tournaments, archery, crossbow shooting, spearthrowing, and so forth, evolved after the great wars.

With general technical developments and their evolution, all types ofindividual and team sports began to boom. At the same time, in parallel withthe increasing number of sports injuries, sports surgery and sports medicinefollowed with a tremendous evolution of new knowledge and new possibili-ties. Technical innovations such as arthroscopy and enormous research activ-ities due to the increased general welfare of the population as a result offinancial prosperity on the one hand and better physical conditions of thepopulation (e.g., good healthy nutrition over the whole year) on the otherhand may have been responsible for this progress and improvements in theresults. Fortunately, it is no longer true – as it was with our predecessors – tosay “They won’t come back!” when sports participants left the sportsgroundon a stretcher.

Competition in sports has become also a competition between nations.Thus, the overall medal ranking at the Olympic Games is the pride of nations

xi

and, in an unattended way, has been of a greater importance in the decadessince World War II.

Sports medicine doctors are also heavily involved in competitions nowa-days, even among themselves. Less than 40 years ago, a university professor oforthopedics stated “There is no need for sports medicine and especially sportstraumatology. We do that already.” How erroneous was this statement!

Look at this book! With more than 3,000 pages, it is a lexicon of sportsmedicine knowledge. But, there is also no doubt that the enormous increase incommon sports injuries, including from the new extreme sports, brings enor-mous costs to the healthcare system.

Receiving the best treatment with full recovery achieved in a short period oftime is important for professional athletes, players in expensive teams, recre-ational sportsmen, and, last but not least, the workers and their employerstogether with insurance companies because of the costs of injuries and flow-oneconomic consequences such as rents and so forth. The best, correct treatmentis ultimately cheaper, especially in the long run.

The paper is patient, the Patient is not. Study, learn, and prepare theintervention you plan to perform. Do it right the first time and do not wait tolearn from the complications later!

Preface II

Sport Injury: Raising Political Awareness on a Nationaland International Level

If you ask politicians and decision-makers about the significance of sportsmedicine, the reply has often more to do with anti-doping issues than actualsports injuries. The treatment and rehabilitation of injured athletes is rarelydeemed a serious problem, except to those who in an athletic past may havethemselves sustained an injury in training or competition. The sports doctor’sdaily concern for treatment–and more importantly prevention–of sports inju-ries is an almost entirely undiscovered country to those in a position to helpmost. This obscurity belies the true extent and far-reaching consequences ofsports injuries that are currently near epidemic proportions. This reality wasacknowledged during a recent debate on this sports injuries “epidemic” at theeighth congress of the European Federation of Sports Medicine Associations(EFSMA) in Strasbourg in September 2013. J. Kornbeck, a representative ofthe Sport Unit of the European Commission and European Union, mentionedthat the EU policy decision-makers were simply not aware of the large-scaleproblem of sports injuries. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries in par-ticular were startlingly disproportionate in frequency and severity to thegeneral impression of political leaders and administrators. There is a definiteand pressing need to bring this subject into the political conversation. That weknow many of these injuries are preventable adds to the urgency in raisingawareness and creating a change for the better (Myklebust et al. 2003).

Fortunately, some forward-thinking international associations have begunto recognize the problem, and the first definitive steps are being taken in linewith VanMechelen’s four-stage approach (i.e., evaluating the magnitude of theproblem). The International Olympic Committee (IOC) deserves credit indriving this research forward under the auspices of Prof. Lars Engebretsen,who began to register specific types of sports injuries during the OlympicGames in 2004. Systematic data collection was limited to team sports inAthens, but by the 2008 Olympic Games of Beijing, sports injuries werebeing tracked in athletes across all events, and the system has become inte-grated into IOC policy (Junge et al. 2008). Engebretsen’s data demonstratedthat approximately 10 % of athletes sustained an injury while attending andcompeting at the Olympic Games. Similar initiatives have been undertaken in

xiii

football (Champions League) (Ekstrand et al. 2013), alpine skiing (FIS WorldCup), and other sports revealing comparable or even worse findings.

Injuries recorded during these events and competitions, however, representonly the tip of the iceberg. Incidence of ACL injuries, for instance, has beenshown to rise significantly in populations at risk. When these and otherpreventable injuries are occurring in quantities that qualify them as seriouspublic health issues, it is time to act! We in the field of sports medicine mustraise public awareness of these problems, which are of great importance to thephysical and psychosocial well-being of our young athletes in both profes-sional and amateur arenas. The situation becomes especially vital when itcomes to injury prevention in youth sports, where society’s high duty of carehas not been upheld in protecting our most precious and vulnerable citizens.

There has been a steady growth inmajor high-level international, continental,and global competitions for youth. Such competitions have stimulated loftyperformance-oriented targets to which younger athletes can aspire. Sanctionedand overseen by various or individual international associations and federations,these events are seen as stepping stones in an athlete’s development towardhigh-performance competitions. Unfortunately, there are no mechanisms cur-rently in place that increase scientific knowledge of sports injuries and stimulateinjury monitoring and prevention in this young population.

One example – doubtless again the tip of the iceberg – of youth sports injurymay be seen in female gymnastics, one of the rare high-impact sports in whichoveruse injuries are as frequent if not more than acute injuries (O’Kane et al.2011). There is a dearth of scientific literature on injuries in the sport ofgymnastics. For those among us who have treated young gymnasts, the paucityof systematic injury surveillance and prevention programs in the field issurprising. We must therefore be vigilant to avoid compromising the futureof young athletes not only in their development through higher levels ofcompetition but more importantly their prospect of leading a healthy andpain-free life beyond sport. It is unacceptable that potentially preventableinjury be the cause of reduced physical capacity later in life. Raising awarenessof sports injuries within the greater community beyond sports and in thepolitical arena in particular will have far-reaching benefits for citizens of allages involved in physical activity.

The discussion has already begun, led by bodies such as the IOC andconcerned members like His Royal Highness the Grand Duke Henri of Lux-embourg. Curious about a visit by the former Minister of Sports to the OsloSports Trauma Research Centre, the Grand Duke was eager to learn moreabout the issue of sports injury rehabilitation and prevention. Following a tourof our newly created center in Luxembourg to gain a deeper insight into ourclinical and research programs (Frisch et al. 2009; Malisoux et al. 2013), theGrand Duke determined to place current research and understanding of sportsinjuries onto the agenda of Luxembourg’s official state visit to Norway(Fig. 1). This inclusion of sports medicine and specifically sports injuries onthe agenda of an official state visit may have been a first and illustrates whateasy steps can be taken by two small countries to raise awareness and initiateefforts to prevent the sports injury “epidemic” from growing. It also shows thatin our roles as sports physicians and surgeons, we must not limit ourselves to

xiv Preface II

“fixing” physical problems but become active more broadly in preventionthrough such professional collaboration and raising political awareness.

Therefore, gaining knowledge in the field of sports injuries, implementationof surveillance on a systematic basis, and promotion of prevention shouldbecome integral components of curricula not only in sports medicine andsurgery but also in the field of sports science in general. In this regard, it isto the eminent credit of Professors Mahmut NedimDoral and Jon Karlsson thatthis extensive new book catalogues the most current knowledge and up-to-dateevolutions in the field of sports injury. This work of over 2,000 pages willdoubtless become a milestone in orthopedic sports medicine.

Preface III

Sports medicine has made tremendous strides over the past years. This haslargely been due to the renewed interest in exploring and replicating nativeanatomy. Take, for example, the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL); itstwo-bundle anatomy was described as early as 1836 by Dr. Weber Brothersin Gottingen, Germany. ACL reconstruction has been performed since theearly 1900s. However, this involved mostly single-bundle reconstruction, andmost techniques were rather nonanatomic. As early as 1938, Palmer proposedthe idea of double-bundle reconstruction in his thesis on ACL reconstruction.However, the significance of his work was unfortunately not recognized untilmany years later.

In the 1980s came the transition to arthroscopic surgery. The goal was toreduce recovery time and avoid large incisions. Despite these good intentions,with the increased complexity of the procedure, the focus shifted away fromanatomic reconstruction and moved toward standardized techniques to facil-itate easier and more efficient graft placement. It was such techniques that ledthe field of sports medicine away from the teachings of Weber, Palmer, andtheir colleagues. Anatomy was no longer a priority.

Initially, the results of the early arthroscopic techniques were promising, butas long-term follow-up data became available, a high rate of early osteoarthri-tis after primary ACL reconstruction was seen. This was followed by three-dimensional imaging studies showing that these early arthroscopic techniques,although fast and efficient, failed to place the ACL graft in its anatomiclocation. Kinematic studies confirmed they indeed did not restore normaldynamic knee function.

These findings lead to a new movement of “going back to anatomy.”Anatomic ACL reconstruction has since then gained incredible popularity.It changed the paradigm of ACL surgery and sports medicine as a whole.Anatomic ACL reconstruction restores the ACL to its native dimensions,collagen orientation, and insertion sites. The goal of anatomic ACL recon-struction is to replicate the knee’s normal anatomy and restore its normalkinematics, all while protecting long-term knee health.

The same shift is being seen for many other procedures within orthopedicsports medicine. That is why this new book is so important. It presents thenewest teachings by the leaders in our field. I commend Dr. Jon Karlsson andDr. Mahmut Nedim Doral for putting this excellent book together.

Preface IV

In the past, there have been many textbooks written on sports-related injuries.However, the focus of these books was usually narrow, just focusing onthe limited anatomy such as knees, upper extremities, or specific sports.Prof. Mahmut Nedim Doral and Prof. Jon Karlsson and their team createdthe second edition of Sports Injuries in a comprehensive and organized fashioncovering all aspects of sports-related problems. In recent years, sports- andathletics-related problems became one of the most important and popularissues not only for athletes but also for all the population ranging fromyoung to old generations because from infants to aged generations, almostall people at least to a certain extent are involved in athletic activities on a dailybasis. In addition, therapeutically designed athletic training and rehabilitationfor the disabled population also became to be known as an important issue forthe general population. Epidemiological study clearly shows that sports-related injuries and problems are issues important to the entire medical care.On the basis of this issue, prevention of sports injuries and problems is verycritical and is very well highlighted in this textbook. Also, highly advancedrecent conservative and surgical treatment modalities are described in a timelyfashion. Although sports-related problems and injuries did not draw attentionuntil recently compared to the common orthopedic and surgical problems, it infact started at the beginning of medicine by Hippocrates and his teacherHerodicus. Also, the issue of the dramatic increase of young physicians whobecame interested in sports-related problems and significant progress was seenin sports medicine–related issues in recent years. International Society ofArthroscopy, Knee and Orthopaedic Sports Medicine will celebrate its20-year commemoration in the year 2015, and as a president of this society,

Preface V

When I was asked to write a preface to this Second Edition, I was at the sametime delighted and afraid.

Delighted, as it is always a great honour to be asked to write a preface.Afraid, because I am still wary of not being able to convey how good thiswhole endeavour is.

Prof. Mahmut Nedim Doral, Prof. Jon Karlsson, and their team haveworked jolly hard at bettering what was already a great product. If it wasever possible, here comes the tangible truth: over 250 chapters, great authorsfrom all the continents, and up-to-date easy-to-digest clinically relevant infor-mation. A ponderous opus, bearing witness to the work of love necessary forthe careful planning and the long gestation necessary to select the topics,identify the right authors, and ‘oblige’ them to give their best.

It is often said that good surgeons know how to operate, better surgeonsknow when to operate, and outstanding surgeons know when not to operate.In this edition, much has been dedicated to the prevention of sports injuries.This, I believe, is the future, especially given the present and foreseeableconditions of healthcare even in the developed world, where cost containmentand value for money are becoming an ever-pervading mantra.

Common conditions are common, and they deserve much space. Neverthe-less, the book makes sure that the less-known issues which we come to face areadequately represented and that balanced opinions are given. I believe that thisgives a truly global approach to sports traumatology and makes me think ofthis as the reference benchmark textbook for both trainees and specialists.

I can only look forward to the next edition: Knowing the editors, I am surethat they are already thinking about it!
