Proximal hamstring avulsion injury in an ultimate frisbee player: Case report and literature review

We present the case of an elite ultimate player who suffered a proximal hamstring avulsion injury. A 26-year-old male athlete was evaluated in our office 2 weeks after being involved in a collision during an ultimate game. Magnetic resonance imaging of the hamstrings showed an extensive, high-grade right-sided tear with a 5–6 cm of tendon retraction and moderate signal in the muscle extending to the thigh. Delayed open repair of the avulsed tendon was performed through a posterior approach under general anaesthesia. Twelve months after surgery, the patient had no complaints, and his range of motion and strength had recovered to preinjury levels. The patient has since competed at the national club level and the professional level. This case reports on the success of the primary repair even after a delay in treatment of several weeks and significant tendon retraction.中 文 摘 要很少有研究描述通常被稱為極限飛盤運動發生的傷害。 我們介紹了一名精英極限飛盤球員遭受了近端膕繩肌撕脫傷的情況。 在一場極限飛盤比賽中碰撞後兩週, 一名26歲的男運動員在我們的辦公室進行了的評估。膕繩肌的磁共振成像 (MRI) 顯示右側肌腱收縮5-6厘米及廣泛的高等級信號, 肌肉中等信號延伸至大腿。 在全身麻醉下通過後路進行撕脫肌腱的延遲開放復修。 手術12個月後, 患者沒有任何不適, 他的運動和力量範圍恢復到了受傷前的水平。 此後, 患...
