Outline - Background - Cases & presentations of common pediatric sports medicine injuries - Physical exam findings - Imaging - Treatment - Prevention
Slide 4-

Pediatric Sports Medicine - Estimated that over 30-45 million children ages 6-18 participate in athletics annually - Nearly ¾ of US households have at least one child that participates in organized sports - Sports participation is more accessible with increased variety Increasing sports specialization More year round and concurrent sports - Drive for success, college scholarships, going professional NCAA stats demonstrate that less than 0.5-1.6% of high school athletes will earn partial scholarships to D1 schools 1% of college athletes go professional
Slide 5-

Pediatric Sports Medicine - Over ½ of children under age 14 who seek medical care for injuries are due to overuse injuries Most common injuries Sprains, strains, bone or growth plate injuries, repetitive motion and overuse injuries, heat related illness 62% of injuries occur during practice - Over 1 in 10 will have an emergency room visit for a sports related injury
Slide 6-

Case #1 - 14 year old male with L knee pain x 1 year - Pain is located over anterior knee - Hurts more with running, jumping, squatting - Front of knee seems swollen at the area of pain
Slide 7-

Osgood Schlatter (Tibial Tubercle Apophysitis) - Cases & Common Presentations Ages 11-15 years old Males>females Occurs with running, jumping or increase in physical activity Worsens if hits/bangs/falls on tender area - Physical exam Tenderness on palpation of tibial tubercle May have prominence/swollen appearance of tibial tubercle
Slide 8-

Osgood Schlatter - Imaging Xrays demonstrate an open tibial tubercle Xrays are not necessary Help to exclude tibial tubercle avulsion, cyst, tumor, infection - Treatment Rest, activity modification Ice Patellar tendon strap Increase flexibility of hamstrings & quadriceps Closure of apophysis
Slide 9-

Case #2 - 10 year old female with anterior knee pain x 2 weeks - Pain occurs with running, kneeling, climbing - Pain is located at inferior aspect of patella (superior to tender area in Osgood Schlatter)
Slide 10-

Sinding Larsen Johanssen (Patellar Apophysitis) - Cases & Common Presentations Ages 10-13 years old Pain present/worse with running, jumping, climbing, kneeling - Physical Exam Tenderness over inferior pole of the patella - Imaging Xrays not necessary May demonstrate irregular calcification at inferior pole of the patella -
Slide 11-

Sinding Larsen Johanssen (Patellar Apophysitis) - Treatment Same as for Osgood Schlatter Rest/activity modification Ice Patellar tendon strap Flexibility of hamstrings & quadriceps Time to close growth plate - Prevention? Good flexibility Gradual increase in activity

Case #3 - 8 year old male soccer player with bilateral heel pain - Has been present for 2 years and is getting worse - Occurs with activity and patient will limp at the end of the game
Slide 14-

Sever’s Disease (Calcaneal Apophysitis) - Cases & Common Presentations Ages 8-15 Can be unilateral or bilateral Usually occurs after physical activity but as worsens will occur during physical activity and at rest May cause limping Most common in running and high impact activities Worse with cleats, flat feet Pain at insertion of Achilles tendon and plantar fascia
Slide 15-

Sever’s Disease - Physical Exam Tenderness on palpation of medial & lateral aspect of calcaneus + Calcaneal squeeze May have tight calves, flat feet - Imaging Clinical diagnosis Xrays demonstrate open physis Often look irregular
Slide 16-

Sever’s Disease - Treatment Rest/activity modification Ice Heel cups Cushion, 3/8” heel lift Insert for arch support May build up back to lift heel Activity as tolerated, no limping allowed - Prevention Achilles flexibility Arch support
Slide 17-

Case #4 - 14 year old male football player who sprained his ankle during practice - Wasn’t able to walk off the field - Has bruising and swelling of ankle - Pain with weightbearing - Pain mainly located over lateral ankle and tenderness on palpation of distal fibula
Slide 18-

Salter Harris 1 Fracture of Distal Fibula - Cases & Common Presentations Usually inversion ankle injury Swelling May have pain with weightbearing Ankle injury in skeletally immature patient Most occur ages 8-15 years old Physis is the weakest link Often missed and treated as ankle sprain - Physical Exam Tenderness on palpation of distal fibular physis (1cm above distal tip of the fibula)
Slide 19-

Salter Harris 1 Fracture of Distal Fibula - Imaging Obtain WEIGHTBEARING ankle xrays (AP, lateral, and mortise views) Xrays often normal May demonstrate soft tissue swelling or widening of physis Still treat for a SH 1 fracture if xrays normal - Treatment Tall walking boot & weightbearing as tolerated (use crutches if still has pain while in the boot) Repeat exam in 3-4 weeks Refer displaced fractures to ortho
Slide 20-

Case #5 - 16 year old male soccer player was kicking a soccer ball - Felt and heard a pop from his hip - Fell to the ground and had difficulty bearing weight - Has bruising and swelling of his hip - Tenderness on palpation of anterior hip - Decreased strength & flexibility
Slide 21-

Hip Avulsion - Cases & Common Presentations Mechanism of injury is sudden forceful contraction of muscle Kicking, sprinting, jumping Most common at ASIS, AIIS, ischial tuberosity Also can occur at iliac crest, lesser trochanter, pubic symphysis Usually occurs between ages 14-18 years old
Slide 22-

Hip Avulsion - Muscle attachments and mechanisms of injury ASIS (Sartorius) & AIIS (Rectus femoris) Kicking, coming out of starting blocks Lesser trochanter (iliopsoas) Sprinting, hip flexion Ischial tuberosity (hamstring) Hurdles, splits, high kick Iliac crest (abdominal muscles) Abrupt trunk rotation Change of direction with running
Slide 23-

Hip Avulsion - Physical Exam May have bruising & swelling Tenderness on palpation over a growth plate Pain with motion and manual resisted testing Antalgic gait - Imaging Xray AP pelvis & frogleg lateral - Treatment If > 2cm displacement refer to ortho Acute: rest, crutches, ice, analgesics Subacute: Physical therapy-> ROM, stretching, strengthening, then gradually guide back activities
Slide 24-

Hip Apophysitis - Common Presentations Gradual onset pain of pelvis/hip without specific trauma Due to chronic traction at growth plate where tendon inserts Skeletally immature - Physical Exam Tenderness on palpation at site of tendon insertion - Imaging Xray AP pelvis & frogleg lateral often normal - Treatment Rest x 4 weeks, physical therapy, gradual return to play
Slide 25-

Case #6 - 12 year old left hand dominant baseball pitcher has 2 weeks of left shoulder pain - Hurts when throwing, particularly if trying to throw hard - Has been icing and taking ibuprofen but pain is still present - Had pain at the end of last season that went away when the season finished
Slide 26-

Little League Shoulder (Humeral Epiphysitis) - Common Presentations Ages 11-16 years old Mechanism of injury: Repetitive torsional stress - Physical Exam Tenderness over proximal humerus Usually will have positive impingement signs - Imaging Xray Shoulder (AP, axillary, scapular Y views) may show widening of the proximal humeral epiphysis Treatment: Rest & Rehabilitation: Usually 3 or more months Gradual return to throwing program
Slide 27-

Case #7 - 12 year old right hand dominant baseball catcher with right elbow pain - 2 months of elbow pain that is getting worse - Initially was a pitcher but stopped due to pain and now catching but continues to have pain
Slide 28-

Little League Elbow (Medial Condyle Apophysitis) - Common Presentations 8-15 years old Usually no trauma May complain of weak & ineffective throws Most common in pitchers, followed by catchers, 3rd base, SS, outfield Mechanism of injury= repetitive valgus stress on elbow from overhead throwing - Physical Exam Tenderness over medial epicondyle Pain with resisted wrist flexion & forearm pronation
Slide 29-

Little League Elbow - Imaging Bilateral Elbow xrays (AP, lateral & oblique views) May see widening of physis - Treatment Rest, ice, NSAIDs, immobilization (rarely) Physical therapy: ROM, strength (elbow, shoulder, trunk, lower extremity)
Slide 30-

Upper Extremity Injury Prevention - Prevention Preseason strengthening and graded return to throwing program at least 6-8 weeks prior to 1st practice Focus on scapular stabilizing, rotator cuff, hip, trunk, & lower extremity strengthening Address deficits in the off season Rest from overhead throwing at least 3 months out of the year Follow pitch counts & rest days Monitor all teams Proper mechanics Close attention to technique & monitored by coaches No high velocity (>80mph), curve balls or sliders until skeletally mature (~14 years old) Stop if having pain & get evaluated promptly
Slide 31-

Case #8 - 15 year old gymnast with right sided low back pain - Bothers her with bending forward but worsens with backward bending - Improves with rest
Slide 32-

Spondylolysis (Stress fracture of pars interarticularis) - Common presentation Athletes with repetitive extension or rotation of spine Gymnasts, dancers, figure skating, football linemen, rowing Risk factors are family history and spina bifida Most common at L5 followed by L4 May be seen in higher lumbar vertebrae but much less frequent - Physical Exam Midline tenderness Pain with lumbar extension Positive stork test Tight hamstrings
Slide 33-

Spondylolysis - Imaging Xrays AP and lateral lumbar spine No obliques MRI/CT lumbar spine Determine what is best at your facility & be sure to talk with radiology
Slide 34-

Spondylolysis - Treatment Rest Bracing controversial Physical therapy Avoid extension Core strength, lower extremity flexibility - Complications Spondylolithesis: subluxation of upper vertebrae of lower vertebrae at site of bilateral spondylolysis Chronic low back pain Neurologic symptoms Surgery for worsening spondylolithesis and chronic symptoms
