Background:Cricket, classified as noncontact game, has been shown to be associated with increased incidence of injury. Further the recent consensus update in cricket injury surveillance have updated the injury definitions which includes “Medical Attention” injuries. The purpose of this review was to systematically review the various case reports and studies reporting injuries in the game of cricket that fall under the gambit of medical attention injuries.Materials and Methods:A systematic review was conducted online using PubMed and Google Scholar, as per Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Metaanalyses guidelines. Predefined eligibility criteria were applied, and the data thus compiled were analysed.Results:A total of 32 studies reporting 43 players including 42 males and 1 female were included in the review. Bowling injuries were the most commonly reported injury. Impact injury was the most common mode with acute presentation in batting and fielding injury, whereas it was gradual onset mode with chronic presentation in bowling injuries. Head and neck injuries were the most common in batting injuries while extremity injuries were common in fielding and bowling injuries. No injuries were reported in umpires.Conclusion:The evidence provided, although not sufficient for any recommendation, it should alert the physicians and those concerned with the primary care of the cricketers to be vigilant of the eccentricity and severity of the injuries, their atypical presentation, mode, mechanism and trend, thereby being prepared for the unexpected presentations.

IntroductionPort-wine stain (1) normally occurs as a congenital cutaneous hemangioma commonly found in the occipital region and the face. Fading with age is observed in most cases. Lesion development in adults is quite unusual. This paper presents a case of acquired portwine stain in a 78-year-old man, which developed at the center of the forehead. Case ReportOn January of 1996, a 78-year-old male, a farmer for the past 50 years, came to my hospital for examination of an erythematous, oval patch at the center of the forehead (Fig. 1 see arrowheads) and dendriform telangiectasia on the ridgeline of his nose. Both had been present for the preveous five years. Both had recently and gradually spread. There were few symptoms. The patient wore glasses daily, but this was unrelated to the patch. Routine laboratory' tests showed essentially normal values. Gamma-GTP was 56 lUll (normal; 1-56 lUll); sGOT and sGPT were within normal range. There was no liver dysfunction such as chronic hepatitis. The 75 g glucose tolerance test results were normal, there was no urinary glucose, and hemoglobin Alc was 4.6% (normal; 4.3-5.8%). Serum estrone (El) was 39 pglml (normal for men; 23-83 pg/ml). A skin biopsy specimen from the middle of the forehead showed ectatic capillary vessels (Fig. 2 see arrows) with slight perivascular mononuclear cell infiltration and, from the ridgeline of the nose, dilated capillaries in the upper dermis, partially

“…In another sports-related injury, a 46-year-old man sustained a hard cricket ball strike to his face that resulted in significant soft tissue damage. 7 Tsuji and Sawabe 8 also described 3 patients with acquired PWSs caused secondarily by trauma. Two patients had previous trauma to fingers, while 1 had a left leg injury.…”

“…Cases of acquired PWSs are rare. They have been reported to occur after trauma to the skin [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] as well as without antecedent trauma. 4,6,9,[10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] We describe a 3-year-old girl who presented with multiple acquired PWSs following minor trauma to the skin.…”
