Košarka je šport z visoko incidenco poškodb, pri čemer je koleno – poleg gležnja – eden najpogosteje prizadetih sklepov. Osgood-Schlatterjev sindrom je pogosta rastna poškodba kolena pri mladostnikih, povezana s ponavljajočimi se športnimi obremenitvami in intenzivno telesno rastjo. V raziskavi je sodelovalo 73 mladih košarkarjev, starih od 14 do 20 let. Izpolnili so retrospektivni vprašalnik z vprašanji o izkušnjah s kolenskimi poškodbami, pogostostjo treningov, obdobjem rasti in morebitnim pojavom Osgood-Schlatterjevega sindroma. Ugotovili smo, da si je 43,8 % košarkarjev med kariero že poškodovalo koleno. Od tega so bile akutne poškodbe (56,2 %) pogostejše kot kronične (43,8 %). Delež košarkarjev z uradno postavljeno diagnozo Osgood-Schlatterjevega sindroma je obsegal 9,6 %. Če upoštevamo tudi tiste, ki bi jim na podlagi simptomov lahko pripisali to poškodbo, vendar diagnoza ni bila potrjena, se delež poveča na 17,8 %. Večina poškodb se je zgodila v obdobju hitre rasti. Približno polovica igralcev z Osgood-Schlatterjevim sindromom je prejela fizioterapevtsko obravnavo, ki je pozitivno vplivala na okrevanje in nadaljevanje športne aktivnosti. Izsledki raziskave kažejo na potrebo po bolj individualni in strokovni obravnavi pri diagnosticiranju in zdravljenju tovrstnih poškodb pri mladih košarkarjih.

Abstract

The knee and ankle are two of the most often injured joints in basketball, which is regarded as a sport with a high injury rate. A common growth-related knee ailment in teenagers, Osgood-Schlatter syndrome is linked to periods of rapid physical growth and repetitive sports loads. A retrospective questionnaire regarding knee injuries, training frequency, growth phases, and any instances of Osgood-Schlatter syndrome was filled out by 73 young basketball players, aged 14 to 20, who were included in the study. Among the basketball players, we discovered that 43.8% had suffered a knee injury at some time throughout their careers. Acute injuries accounted for 56.2% of these, whereas chronic injuries accounted for 43.8%. The percentage of athletes who had an Osgood-Schlatter syndrome diagnosis was 9.6%. The rate rose to 17.8% when people who reported symptoms compatible with the illness but were not officially diagnosed were included. The majority of injuries happened during the period of rapid growth. The findings suggest that detecting and treating these injuries of young basketball players requires a more customised and expert approach.
