520 3 |a Purpose: To report the results of suture anchor repair of proximal rectus femoris avulsions in elite football players. Methods: Four professional football players (first-team regulars of European first division football clubs) underwent suture anchor repair of complete proximal rectus femoris avulsions with significant tendon retraction. The following parameters were analysed: demographic data, mechanism of injury, type of injury, classification according to the Munich consensus statement, time between injury and surgery, time between surgery and full participation in training and availability for match and/or competition selection (return to play/RTP), and time between surgery and the comeback to the first official league match (return to competition/RTC). Radiographic evaluation was performed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) obtained pre-operatively and at 6 and 12weeks post-operatively. All players were followed for at least 24months after return to play to exclude recurrence. Results: Mean age at surgery was 30±2years. All injuries occurred while kicking a ball, with the dominant leg affected in all patients. The injury was considered acute in three cases and chronic in one case. According to the Munich classification, all injures were type 4. Mean time to surgery was 60±88days (range, 8-191), mean time to RTP was 111±15days (range, 100-134), and mean time to RTC was 140±23days (range, 114-166). Follow-up MRIs demonstrated anatomically reinserted tendons with decreasing signal intensity over time in all cases. After a mean follow-up of 35±6months, all players were still competing at the same level as before the injury without re-injury. Conclusion: Suture anchor repair of proximal rectus femoris avulsions allows unrestricted return to play in professional elite football players. Return to play can be expected at approximately 16weeks post-operatively. Level of evidence: Case series, IV.
