RESUMO
Hoverboards pose a significant risk of musculoskeletal injury to pediatric riders. A prospectively enrolled cohort yielded 9 pediatric patients injured while riding hoverboards in 2016. Eight of the injuries involved the upper extremity, and one involved the lower extremity. No riders wore any safety equipment and injury patterns modeled those seen in skateboard riders.

RESUMEN Objetivo Determinar la prevalência de lesiones osteomusculares y su relación con las diferentes variables de presentación en la práctica del patinaje de carreras, en atletas por categorías de edad entre los 8 y los 23 años de edad, de la ciudad de Villavicencio, Colombia. Métodos Se desarrolló un estudio observacional analítico de corte transversal o de prevalencia, por medio de la aplicación de un instrumento de recolección de información que fue diseñado y validado cualitativa y cuantitativamente. El instrumento incluyó las variables asociadas a la presentación de lesiones organizadas en cinco dominios. La información recolectada se analizó con estadística descriptiva. Resultados El 66,7 % de la población estudiada pertenecía al sexo femenino, el 39 % de los patinadores tenía entre cinco y seis años de vida deportiva y se ubicó en la categoría de transición; nueve de cada diez atletas realizaron entrenamiento más de cinco días a la semana; la misma proporción realizó de tres a cinco horas de entrenamiento diario. La prevalencia de lesiones osteomusculares fue del 53,7 % del total de la población estudiada; el 29,6 % presentaron entre una y dos lesiones y el 5,6 % de patinadores lesionados tuvo entre nueve y diez lesiones. Conclusiones La mayoría de lesiones osteomusculares se relacionaron con las categorías de menor edad, en periodos precompetitivo y de preparación específica; afectaron miembros inferiores y fueron, en mayor proporción, lesiones óseas y musculares.(AU)
Abstract Objective To determine the prevalence of musculoskeletal injuries and their relation to different presentation variables in inline speed skaters by age categories, between 8 and 23 years of age, from Villavicencio, Colombia. Methods An observational cross-sectional or prevalence analytical study was developed by applying an information collection instrument that was designed and validated qualitatively and quantitatively. The instrument included variables associated with the presentation of lesions organized in five domains. The information collected was analyzed with descriptive statistics. Results 66.7 % of the population studied were females, 39 % of skaters had between five and six years of sporting experience, and were in the transition category. Nine out of ten athletes trained more than five days a week, and the same proportion did three to five hours of daily training. The prevalence of musculoskeletal injuries was 53.7 % in the total population studied; 29.6 % had between one and two injuries, and 5.6% of injured skaters had between nine and ten injuries. Conclusions Most of musculoskeletal injuries were related to the younger age categories, in precompetitive and specific preparation periods. The lower limbs were the most affected, to a greater extent, by bony and muscular lesions.(AU)

Muscle rupture is rarely treated surgically. Few reports of good outcomes after muscular suture have been published. Usually, muscular lesions or partial ruptures heal with few side effects or result in total recovery. We report a case of an athlete who was treated surgically to repair a total muscular rupture in the pectoralis major muscle. After 6 months, the athlete returned to competitive practice. After a 2-year follow-up, the athlete still competes in skateboard championships.

Non-ischemic priapism in children is an uncommon entity usually related to blunt trauma in the perineal region and subsequent fistula formation into the corpus cavernosum. In this report we present the case of a 7-year-old boy who had undergone perineal trauma and developed non-ischemic priapism confirmed radiologically. He was treated by conservative measures along with ultrasonographic monitoring. We discuss the diagnostic approach, the radiologic findings and the mainly conservative management of this infrequent pathology.

OBJECT: Trauma is the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in children, young people, and working-age adults. Because of the high incidence of intentional and unintentional injuries in young people, it is necessary to implement injury-prevention programs and measure the efficacy of these initiatives. The authors evaluated the effectiveness of an injury-prevention program in high school students in a city in southern Brazil. METHODS: In a randomized controlled study, 1049 high school students were divided into a control group and intervention group. The study was conducted in the following 3 stages: a questionnaire was applied 1 week before the educational intervention (P0), shortly after the intervention (P1), and 5 months later (P3). In the control group, a questionnaire based on the Pense Bem Project was applied at the 3 time stages, without any intervention between the stages. RESULTS: The postintervention analysis evidenced a slight change in knowledge about unintentional spinal cord and brain injuries. Regarding attitudes, the only significant improvement after the intervention lecture was in the use of helmets, which remained high 5 months later. A substantial number of students only partially agreed with using safety behaviors. The only significant postintervention change was the major agreement to check swimming pool depth before entering the water (P0 89% and P1 97.8%, p < 0.001; P2 92.8%, p = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS: An educational intervention based on a single lecture improved students' knowledge of traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries, but this type of intervention did not modify most attitudes toward injury prevention. Clinical trial registration no.: U1111-1121-0192.

INTRODUCCIËN: La confluencia de factores que provocan la fricción del patín sobre ciertas áreas de los pies de patinadores durante sus entrenamientos ocasiona lesiones nodulares. OBJETIVO: Explorar y describir características imagenológicas de estas excrecencias circunscritas que se presentan en los pies de patinadores como consecuencia del sobreuso deportivo. MÉTODOS: Se realizó estudio transversal y descriptivo en 100 jóvenes masculinos no deportistas (controles) y en los 15 integrantes de la Preselección Cubana de Patinaje de carrera en abril de 2009 (10 varones y 5 hembras), todos con más de diez años de práctica deportiva sistemática. Se les realizó examen ecográfico diagnóstico en el Instituto de Medicina Deportiva para evaluar el estado de las estructuras articulares y periarticulares de esta región y los datos se procesaron mediante estadística descriptiva. RESULTADOS: Se verificaron distorsiones ecográficas en el 100 por ciento de los deportistas evaluados caracterizadas fundamentalmente por: engrosamiento dérmico circunscrito (100 por ciento), tendinitis (33,3 por ciento) y exostosis bursata (20 por ciento); manifestaciones todas incluidas en una afección que los autores identificaron como el pie del patinador cuya expresión clínica externa lo constituye la presencia de nódulos de localización retrocalcánea, región dorsal y/o medial del pie. CONCLUSIONES: El pie del patinador puede constituir una entidad nosológica que tiene sustento imagenológico y que se relaciona con la fricción directa y sistemática del patín, propia de este deporte y que no solo afecta la piel de los pies de los patinadores sino que puede interferir con el entrenamiento o competencia por la asociación con otras lesiones(AU)
INTRODUCTION: The convergence of factors leading to skate friction on some areas of skater's feet during trainings provoke nodular injuries. OBJECTIVES: To explore and to describe the imaging features of these circumscribed excrecences present in the skater's feet as consequence of sports overuse. METHODS: A cross-sectional and descriptive study was conducted in 100 young no-sportsmen (controls) and in the 15 members of the Cuban Pre-Selection of speed Skating in April, 2009 (10 boys and 5 girls), all of them with more than 10 years of systematic sports practice. Then underwent a diagnostic echographic examination in the Institute of Sports Medicine to assess the condition of articular and periarticular structures of this area and data were processed by descriptive statistics. RESULTS: There were demonstrated echographic distortions in 100 percent of assessed sportsmen, mainly due to: circumscribed dermic thickening (100 percent), tendonitis (33,3 percent) and exostosis bursata (20 percent), manifestations included in an affection identified by authors as skater foot whose external clinical expression is the presence of retrocalcaneal nodules, dorsal and/or foot medial region. CONCLUSIONS: The skater's foot may be a disease entity with an imaging support and is related to direct and systematic friction of skate, characteristic of this sport and that not only involve the teeth's skin but it may to interfere with treatment or competence due to its association with other injuries(AU)

The foot propelled scooter is a popular toy preferred by girls and boys, but at the same time, these put the children at risk of some kind of injury. The literature had reported that the fractures at the upper extremities are the most frequent injury observed related to the use of a scooter. The purpose of our study was to describe the injuries related to the scooters use in a sample of injuries handled at the UPR Hospital at Carolina, Puerto Rico. A total of 62 patients who arrived to the ED and were evaluated for some kind of injury related to the use of scooters were included in our study. Fractures (32.3) constituted the most frequent injury observed in the sample, followed by the lacerations (29.0), and the abrasions (11.3). The parents, doctors and the healthcare workers should be made aware of the causes and prevention of injuries caused by the foot propelled scooters, because this situation is potentially preventable

El uso de patines en línea se ha incrementado en nuestra población infantil y juvenil, por lo que ha aumentado el número de lesionados por la práctica de este deporte. En nuestra investigación de tipo retrospectivo realizando una revisión de las historias clínicas de los pacientes que acudieron a la emergencia que presentaron lesiones por patines en línea (Nº61) evidenciamos que el sexo masculino fue el más afectado (65,5 por ciento) y las edades más afectadas oscilaron entre los 10 y 14 años (52,4 por ciento). Las fracturas fueron las lesiones predominantes (47,5 por ciento) y se encontró que los miembros superiores constituyeron la región anatómica que sufrió más lesiones (57,3 por ciento). Además se pudo constatar en el 36 por ciento de los pacientes, que los protectores más usados eran las rodilleras y las coderas y los patinadores con más de 2 años de experiencia fueron los que consultaron en menor número a la sala de emergencia por lesiones. Finalmente, el tratamiento ortopédico fue el más indicado por los médicos especialistas en el área traumatológica
