ANTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT INJURY IN SOCCER PLAYERS: AN INTEGRATIVE REVIEW
Abstract
Introduction: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture is one of the most prevalent and serious injuries in ball sports, especially in soccer, occurring mainly in non-contact situations. In view of the above, there is a need for a study that seeks to better inform about anterior cruciate ligament surgeries in soccer athletes. Therefore, the aim of this study is to present a solid subject, gathering quality and current articles available in the national and international literature. Materials and methods: This is an integrative literature review. After applying all inclusion and exclusion criteria, a final sample of 6 articles was obtained for the integrative review. Results and discussion: It is said that the incidence of ACL lesions is higher in female athletes when compared to males. Regarding residual laxity in the ACL graft, studies have observed that, in the long term, this problem may worsen the prognosis of patients, increasing the chance of surgical revisions. As for the return of athletes to soccer, it was observed that players who return to the sport have a significantly higher risk of suffering a new knee injury. Conclusion: the articles analyzed suggested that surgical treatment was highly resolutive for ACL injuries.
