Traumatic knee injuries and career drop-outs in adolescent competitive alpine skiers aged 15–19: a longitudinal 4-year follow-up study examining rates, biomechanical injury risk fa... by Jonas Hanimann, Daniel P. Fitze, Thomas Koller, Flavia Schürmann, Stefan Fröhlich, Georg C. Feuerriegel, Christoph Stern, Johannes Scherr, Eling D. de Bruin, Reto Sutter, Jörg Spörri

“…Introduction The aims of this longitudinal 4-year follow-up study were (1) to assess traumatic knee injuries and career drop-out rates in competitive alpine skiers from mid- to late adolescence (i.e. 15–19 years), (2) to investigate the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) abnormalities in the knees of skiers reaching late adolescence, and (3) to evaluate the biomechanical landing patterns of mid adolescent skiers and to compare skiers who experienced an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury during the 4-years follow-up and those who did not.Materials and methods At baseline, knee flexion angle and medial knee displacement during drop jump landing were biomechanically assessed in 108 skiers aged 14.83 ± 0.58 years. …”
