Calf injuries are common in sports that involve high speed running, increased running loads and rapid acceleration and deceleration such as in padel. Padel is a racquet sport that combines elements of tennis and squash played on an enclosed court surrounded by glass walls. In calf injuries, the medial head of the gastrocnemius is most commonly injured as the muscle extends over two joints (knee and ankle) and contains a high density of type 2 fast-twitch muscle fibres.1 A padel player in his early 30s presented with acute pain in his right posterior calf after making an abrupt forward step to accelerate after initially running back during a match. Ultrasound examination was performed 7 days after the injury and demonstrated complete rupture of the distal medial gastrocnemius aponeurosis with extension of the tear into the free gastrocnemius aponeurosis (figure 1). There was also a large intermuscular haematoma and dissociative movement between the medial gastrocnemius and soleus muscle bellies during dynamic plantarflexion and dorsiflexion, compatible …

板球运动员小腿受伤

小腿受伤在涉及高速跑步、增加跑步负荷以及快速加速和减速的运动中很常见，例如板网球。帕德尔是一项球拍运动，融合了网球和壁球的元素，在玻璃墙环绕的封闭球场上进行。在小腿损伤中，腓肠肌内侧头最常受伤，因为该肌肉延伸到两个关节（膝盖和脚踝），并且含有高密度的 2 型快肌纤维。1 一名 30 岁出头的板球运动员出现以下症状在一场比赛中，他最初跑回来后突然向前迈出一步加速，导致右小腿后部剧烈疼痛。受伤后 7 天进行超声检查，显示远端内侧腓肠肌腱膜完全破裂，撕裂口延伸至游离腓肠肌腱膜（图 1）。在动态跖屈和背屈期间，腓肠肌内侧和比目鱼肌肌腹之间还存在大量肌间血肿和分离运动，兼容……
