“…The re‐rupture rate of footballers in our study compares well with the 9.3% ipsilateral re‐rupture rate found in UEFA club footballers [29]. Given that performance is thought to be comparable to non‐injured players and to players’ pre‐injury level by the 3rd season after injury [3, 9, 12] it is possible that some of the late re‐ruptures could be the down to the inherent risk of playing elite sport rather than any kind of graft failure.…”

“…Reported return to play rates have varied between 77% in Australian Football League [20]and Major League Soccer [9] to 100% in alpine skiing [13]. With RTP rates of 95.7% in football, 92% in rugby and an overall rate in all elite sports of 95% this study compares favourably with other published results [5, 12, 19].…”

“…[14, 21, 24] Using publicly available detailed performance statistics, Barth et al [3] found that footballers post ACL‐R took 2 seasons to return to their pre‐injury number of games per season and 3 seasons to return to the same number of minutes per game. Forsythe et al [12], using matched controls also found that by season 3 most players’ performance equalled that of the controls. However, Erickson et al, [9] felt performance was not significantly different post ACLR in major league soccer players at any timepoint when compared to matched controls.…”

“…RTP in elite sport has been studied in many different sports as returning to high‐level sport is the key aim of most elite athletes after ACL reconstruction (ACL‐R). Reported RTP rates and times range between 77 and 96% [2, 3, 7, 9, 11, 12, 14, 20–22, 24] and 6–10 months[12, 14, 16, 21] with some variations between sports. The physical demands placed on an athlete vary between sports and this may be the reason for differences in RTP[21].…”

“…The physical demands placed on an athlete vary between sports and this may be the reason for differences in RTP[21]. Prior studies reporting RTP in elite sports are predominantly limited to single sport cohorts [1, 3, 4, 7–9, 11, 12, 14, 20, 22, 24, 26, 29, 30]. Due to the different methodologies used, attempting to make comparisons between sports is not feasible.…”

Purpose To demonstrate return to play (RTP) rates, the level of RTP and time taken to RTP in different sports after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACL-R) and compare the differences between football and rugby. The secondary aims were to compare the differences in intra articular injuries and their treatments and reoperation rates between these sports. Methods A retrospective review of a consecutive series of all primary ACL-R undertaken by the senior author between 2005 and 2019 was undertaken. Patients were included if they were elite athletes and were a minimum of 2 year post-primary autograft ACL-R. The outcomes measured were RTP (defined as participation in a professional match or in national/ international-level competition in amateur sports), time to RTP after surgery and RTP level (Tegner score). Results Three hundred and ninety-four elite athletes, with 420 ACL-Rs were included. 235 (55.9%) were in footballers and 125 (29.8%) were in rugby players. 399 (95.0%) of all elite athletes returned to competition at an average of 10.3 months after ACL-R. 386 (90.2% played at the same or higher level post-surgery. Although there was no difference in RTP rates between different sports, rugby players RTP significantly faster than footballers (9.6 vs 10.6 months, (p = 0.027). Footballers were more likely to rupture their ACL during jumping/landing manoeuvres and to receive a PT graft than rugby players. There were no other significant differences between football and rugby players regarding patient characteristics, intraoperative findings, re-rupture and re-operation rates. Conclusions Over 95% of all elite athletes RTP after primary ACL-R with 90% able to play at the same level. Rugby players RTP significantly faster than footballers. Level of evience Level IV.

Purpose Studies have shown decreased match participation and shortened careers in athletes suffering Achilles tendon ruptures (ATRs), but assessment using a true performance metric is lacking. Plus/minus (PM) metrics provide a practical and objective approach to player performance assessment and are commonly used in other sports. This study aimed to quantify and compare individual player performance variations in elite football league players who sustained ATRs and returned to play within 1 year compared to those without ATRs, using a PM metric. Methods Player and team data were sourced from Transfermarkt.com. Male players sustaining ATRs between 2007 and 2018 were identified through injury reports. A control group (CTRL) was matched by position, age, height, and league, with a 6:1 ratio of controls to ATR subjects. The day of injury was considered “time zero”. Year -1 corresponds to the 360 days preceding injury, and Year 1 to the interval between 360 and 720 days after. Performance in the player’s main team was evaluated using a previously validated weighted PM metric. Only data from Year -1 and Year 1 were used for ATR versus CTRL group comparisons. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05. Results The ATR group included 125 athletes. Data from more than 76,000 matches were analyzed. No statistically significant differences in net weighted PM metric between Year -1 and Year 1 were found. Conclusion No differences were found between athletes suffering from ATRs and controls regarding the weighted PM metric. Level of evidence III.
