Achilles tendon repair using a bone-tendon graft harvested from the knee extensor system: three cases.

The authors describe a new surgical technique of Achilles tendon reconstruction using bone-tendon graft from the knee extensor system. This technique is for those unusual cases of neglected or partial Achilles tendon rupture with distal tendon-substance loss at calcaneal insertion level, requiring transbone plasty fixation. Three cases are reported; the first two, followed up over a 5-year period, had excellent functional, morphological, and clinical outcomes. This new technique is compared with other available solutions: triceps plasty, other local tendon plasty, artificial plasty, and allograft.

Soccer accidents in the French Rhône-Alpes Soccer Association.

The analysis of 6153 accidents reported to the insurance company of the French Rhône-Alpes Soccer Association, for the 1980-81 season was undertaken, providing a survey of acute pathology in French soccer accidents and an estimation of the cost of this pathology to French society. Findings from this study include: injuries--ankle sprain is the most common; fractures prevail in the young players pathology; exposure--the average risk is one accident for 20 matches; the highest risk is for the senior category; collisions with opponents is the main cause of accidents; the first 5 minutes of the second half have a peak of accidents; the players exposure is roughly the same whatever their position on the ground; risk--winter should not increase the risk if the matches are played under good conditions; the risk is unevenly distributed according to the level of practice; cost--the cost for France over 1 year was estimated at US$20,000,000 and the total number of sick leave days at 2000 years; games with several accidents are very common in January and for the adult category. Consequently, tightening up the safety measures would be a very good investment.

[The surgical treatment of rupture of the rectus femoris muscle in the sportsman (author's transl)].

Ruptures of the middle and lower part of the rectus femoris muscle are seen essentially in the footballer during a shoot at goal. Often unrecognised initially, they warrant surgical treatment in the sportsman. The anatomical appearances of these complete or partial ruptures are described. The authors propose a new technique of reinsertion, relying upon the posterior aponeurotic layer, using non-absorbable sutures. Results were satisfactory in 10 cases out of 11.
