RESUMO
PURPOSE: The European consensus was designed with the objective of combining science and expertise to produce recommendations that would educate and provide guidance in the treatment of the painful degenerative varus knee. Part I focused on indications and planning. METHODS: Ninety-four orthopaedic surgeons from 24 European countries were involved in the consensus, which focused on the most common indications for osteotomy around the knee. The consensus was performed according to an established ESSKA methodology. The questions and recommendations made were initially designed by the consensus steering group. And 'best possible' answers were provided based upon the scientific evidence available and the experience of the experts. The statements produced were further evaluated by ratings and peer review groups before a final consensus was reached. RESULTS: There is no reliable evidence to exclude patients based on age, gender or body weight. An individualised approach is advised; however, cessation of smoking is recommended. The same applies to lesser degrees of patellofemoral and lateral compartment arthritis, which may be accepted in certain situations. Good-quality limb alignment and knee radiographs are a mandatory requirement for planning of osteotomies, and Paley's angles and normal ranges are recommended when undertaking deformity analysis. Emphasis is placed upon the correct level at which correction of varus malalignment is performed, which may involve double-level osteotomy. This includes recognition of the importance of individual bone morphology and the maintenance of a physiologically appropriate joint line orientation. CONCLUSION: The indications of knee osteotomies for painful degenerative varus knees are broad. Part I of the consensus highlights the versatility of the procedure to address multiple scenarios with bespoke planning for each case. Deformity analysis is mandatory for defining the bone morphology, the site of the deformity and planning the correct procedure. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level II, consensus.

PURPOSE: The purpose of the European consensus was to provide recommendations for the treatment of patients with a painful degenerative varus knee using a joint preservation approach. Part II focused on surgery, rehabilitation and complications after tibial or femoral correction osteotomy. METHODS: Ninety-four orthopaedic surgeons from 24 countries across Europe were involved in the consensus, which focused on osteotomies around the knee. The consensus was performed according to the European Society for Sports Traumatology, Knee Surgery and Arthroscopy consensus methodology. The steering group designed the questions and prepared the statements based on the experience of the experts and the evidence of the literature. The statements were evaluated by the ratings of the peer-review groups before a final consensus was released. RESULTS: The ideal hinge position for medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOW HTO) should be at the upper level of the proximal tibiofibular joint, and for lateral closing wedge distal femoral osteotomy (LCW DFO) just above the medial femoral condyle. Hinge protection is not mandatory. Biplanar osteotomy cuts provide more stability and quicker bony union for both MOW HTO and LCW DFO and are especially recommended for the latter. Osteotomy gap filling is not mandatory, unless structural augmentation for stability is required. Patient-specific instrumentation should be reserved for complex cases by experienced hands. Early full weight-bearing can be adopted after osteotomy, regardless of the technique. However, extra caution should be exercised in DFO patients. Osteotomy patients should return to sports within 6 months. CONCLUSION: Clear recommendations for surgical strategy, rehabilitation and complications of knee osteotomies for the painful degenerative varus knee were demonstrated. In Part 2 of the consensus, high levels of agreement were reached by experts throughout Europe, under variable working conditions. Where science is limited, the collated expertise of the collaborators aimed at providing guidance for orthopaedic surgeons developing an interest in the field and highlighting areas for potential future research. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level II, consensus.

Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) ruptures can cause severe knee instability and disability and thus, appropriate management is crucial for the successful restoration of patients' knee function. Rupture of the PCL can occur during sporting activity but more often, as a part of high-energy trauma. The diagnosis can be made using various clinical tests, such as the posterior drawer test or the quadriceps active test. MRI is the gold standard in imaging. PCL injuries can be classified from grade I to grade III, with increasing severity. Treatment can be conservative or surgical and should be personalized based on patients' demographic characteristics, grade of injury, level of instability, associated injuries and activity levels.
Les ruptures du ligament croisé postérieur (LCP) peuvent causer une instabilité sévère du genou et une incapacité importante, rendant ainsi une prise en charge appropriée cruciale pour le rétablissement d'une bonne fonction du genou. La rupture du LCP peut survenir lors d'une activité sportive, mais plus souvent, dans le cadre d'un traumatisme à haute énergie. Le diagnostic peut être posé à l'aide de différents tests cliniques, tels que le test du tiroir postérieur ou le test actif du quadriceps. L'IRM est l'examen de référence en imagerie. Les lésions du LCP peuvent être classées de grade I à III, avec une gravité croissante. Le traitement peut être conservateur ou chirurgical et doit être personnalisé en fonction des caractéristiques démographiques des patients, du grade de la lésion, du niveau d'instabilité, des lésions associées et des niveaux d'activité.

The use of Kinesiotaping (KT) has become common in the treatment and prevention of musculoskeletal injuries. This article covers the ten main myths encountered on a daily basis, examining the evidence from recent data (systematic reviews and meta-analyses). With current available data, there is a relative evidence regarding some effect upon short-term pain relief, improved mobility, better joint stability, drainage of edema, and improve muscle function. Concerning the prevention of musculoskeletal injuries, it seems that the effectiveness of KT is still questionable. Overall, there are few publications with a high-level of evidence that can support all myths surrounding K-taping.
L'utilisation de kinésiotaping (KT) est devenue courante dans le traitement et la prévention des blessures musculosquelettiques. Cet article reprend les dix principaux mythes rencontrés au quotidien, en examinant les preuves à partir de données récentes (revues systématiques et méta-analyses) qui nous semblent, à ce jour, les plus pertinentes. Avec les données disponibles actuellement, il existe des preuves partielles d'un soulagement de la douleur à court terme, d'une amélioration de la mobilité, de la stabilité articulaire, de l'Ådème et de la fonction musculaire. Concernant la prévention des lésions musculosquelettiques, il semble que l'efficacité du KT soit encore discutable. Dans l'ensemble, il y a peu de publications avec un haut niveau de preuves à ce sujet qui permettent d'étayer l'ensemble des mythes gravitant autour du KT.

PURPOSE: The aim of this ESSKA consensus is to give recommendations based on evidence and expert opinion to improve diagnosis, preoperative planning, indication and surgical strategy in ACL revision. METHODS: The European expert surgeons and scientists were divided into four groups to participate in this consensus. A "literature group" (four surgeons); "steering group" (14 surgeons and scientists); "rating group" (19 surgeons) and finally "peer review group" (51 representatives of the ESSKA-affiliated national societies from 27 countries). The steering group prepared eighteen question-answer sets. The quality of the answers received grades of recommendation ranging from A (high-level scientific support), to B (scientific presumption), C (low level scientific support) or D (expert opinion). These question-answer sets were then evaluated by the rating group. All answers were scored from 1 to 9. The comments of the rating group were incorporated by the steering group and the consensus was submitted to the rating group a second time. Once a general consensus was reached between the steering and rating groups, the question-answer sets were submitted to the peer review group. A final combined meeting of all the members of the consensus was held to ratify the document. RESULTS: The literature review for the diagnosis and preoperative planning of ACL revision revealed a rather low scientific quality. None of the 18 questions was graded A and six received a grade B. The mean rating of all the questions by the rating group was 8.4 ± 0.3. The questions and recommendations are listed below. CONCLUSION: ACL revision surgery is a widely debated subject with many different opinions and techniques. The literature reveals a poor level of standardisation. Therefore, this international consensus project is of great importance. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: II.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: The aim of this ESSKA consensus is to give recommendations based on scientific evidence and expert opinion to improve the diagnosis, preoperative planning, indication and surgical strategy in Anterior Cruciate Ligament revision. METHODS: Part 2, presented herein, followed exactly the same methodology as Part 1: the so-called ESSKA formal consensus derived from the Delphi method. Eighteen questions were ultimately asked. The quality of the answers received the following grades of recommendation: Grade A (high level scientific support), Grade B (scientific presumption), Grade C (low level scientific support) or Grade D (expert opinion). All answers were scored from 1 to 9 by the raters. Once a general consensus had been reached between the steering and rating groups, the question-answer sets were submitted to the peer-review group. A final combined meeting of all the members of the consensus was then held to ratify the document. RESULTS: The review of the literature revealed a rather low scientific quality of studies examining the surgical strategy in cases of ACL reconstruction failure. Of the 18 questions, only 1 received a Grade A rating; 5, a Grade B rating; and 9, grades of C or D. The three remaining complex questions received further evaluations for each portion of the question and were looked at in more detail for the following grades: B and D; A, C and D; or A, B, C and D. The mean rating of all questions by the rating group was 8.0 + - 1.1. The questions and recommendations are listed in the article. CONCLUSION: ACL revision surgery, especially the surgical strategy, is a widely debated subject with many different opinions and techniques. The literature reveals a poor level of standardization. Therefore, this international European consensus project is of great importance and clinical relevance for guiding the management of ACL revision in adults. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level II.

PURPOSE: The choice of graft for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction remains controversial. The quadriceps tendon (QT) autograft is a good alternative for ACL reconstruction. However, concerns regarding its use in short-statured patients, related to donor site morbidity, anterior knee pain, or loss of muscle strength remain. This study aimed to compare muscle strength and morbidity between patients with short and normal statures following ACL reconstruction with a QT autograft. METHODS: A total of 73 female patients (mean age, 33.8 ± 11.5 years) who underwent primary ACL reconstruction between 2016 and 2019 were included. Patients were categorized into two groups: group S, with a height ≤ 163 cm, and group L, with a height > 163 cm. Muscle strength, harvesting site morbidity, and ACL-return to sport after injury scale (ACL-RSI) were evaluated, with a mean timing of the follow-up of 9.0 ± 2.3 months. RESULTS: The mean quadriceps strength for the isokinetic measurements at 60° and 240° was 65.0% and 74.0% in group S, respectively, and 70.0% and 75.7% in group L, respectively. There was no significant difference in the postoperative muscle strength or mean ACL-RSI (group S, 70.0; group L, 65.9) between the groups. No donor site morbidity was observed in either group. CONCLUSION: Muscle strength recovery, morbidity, and readiness to return to sports were similar in both groups, which supports the possibility of QT autografts for patients with a small stature. The results of this study may provide useful information for surgeons who are hesitant to perform QT autografts because of patient physique. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

PURPOSE: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries often lead to associated injuries of the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus (PHLM). Arthroscopic, assessment of PHLM instability may be difficult in the absence of a visible meniscus damage. The main objective of this prospective multi-center study was to compare the ability of the probing and aspiration tests to identify PHLM instability in a population of patients undergoing ACL reconstruction (ACLR) and a control group of patients with an intact ACL undergoing knee arthroscopy. METHODS: A prospective case-control analysis was performed in three sports medicine centers. One-hundred and three consecutive patients operated for a primary isolated ACLR without structural lateral meniscus damage other than a root tear were included. They were compared to a control group of 29 consecutive patients who had a knee arthroscopy with an intact ACL and no structural lateral meniscus lesion. The probing and aspiration tests were consecutively executed according to previously published methods. RESULTS: In the control group, no lateral meniscus lesions were visualized during arthroscopy, and both probing and aspiration tests were negative in all patients. In the group of ACL-injured patients, a Forkel type I-III posterolateral meniscus root tear (PLMRT) was found in 12 patients (12%). In this subgroup, the probing test was positive in 4/12 patients (33%) and the aspiration test in 5 additional patients (75%). In 15 patients (15%), an elongation of the posterior root of the lateral meniscus (defined as type IV PLMRT as an addendum to the Forkel classification) could be observed during arthroscopy. In this subgroup, only 1 patient displayed a PHLM instability with the probing test (7%), whereas the aspiration test was positive in 13/15 patients (87%). In the remaining 76 patients (74%), no structural lesion of the PHLM could be identified. Nevertheless, an instability of the PHLM could be identified in 8 of them (11%) with the probing test, and the aspiration test was positive in 2 additional knees (13%) of this apparently normal subgroup. Altogether, in the entire ACL injury cohort, a positive probing test was observed in 13/103 patients (13%) and a positive aspiration test in 32/103 knees (31%) (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION: Careful observation and examination of the PHLM with the aspiration test revealed a substantial amount of previously undiagnosed lateral meniscus instabilities in ACL-injured knees. The prevalence of PHLM instability as evaluated by the aspiration test was high (31%). The aspiration test was superior to the probing test in detecting an instability of the PHLM in a population of ACL-injured patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: II.

Rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a frequent injury, and it affects women more often than men. The increased incidence in females was attributed to biological, anatomical, and mechanical differences when compared to males' counterparts. Hormones, menstrual cycle, and genetic factors are also implicated. Dynamic factor such as hip, knee and ankle biomechanics while jumping, landing, and cutting activities are established contributors to ACL rupture in females. Social and economic aspects both is sports and daily life are currently implicated in increased risk of injury and delayed return to sport. Therefore, they should be taken into consideration when studying ACL injury risk factors and when developing rehabilitation and prevention programs.
La rupture du ligament croisé antérieur (LCA) est fréquente et touche plus souvent les femmes que les hommes. L'incidence accrue chez les femmes a été attribuée à des différences biologiques, anatomiques et mécaniques. Les hormones, le cycle menstruel et les facteurs génétiques jouent aussi un rôle. Les facteurs dynamiques tels que la biomécanique de la hanche, du genou et de la cheville lors des activités de saut, d'atterrissage et de pivot sont des facteurs de risque prouvés de la rupture du LCA chez les femmes. Les aspects sociaux et économiques, tant dans le sport que dans la vie quotidienne, sont impliqués dans l'augmentation du risque de blessures et le retard du retour au sport. Ils doivent donc être pris en compte lors de l'étude des facteurs de risque de blessure du LCA et de l'élaboration de programmes de rééducation et de prévention.

PURPOSE: To establish recommendations for diagnosis, classification, treatment, and rehabilitation of posteromedial corner (PMC) knee injuries using a modified Delphi technique. METHODS: A list of statements concerning the diagnosis, classification, treatment and rehabilitation of PMC injuries was created by a working group of four individuals. Using a modified Delphi technique, a group of 35 surgeons with expertise in PMC injuries was surveyed, on three occasions, to establish consensus on the inclusion or exclusion of each statement. Experts were encouraged to propose further suggestions or modifications following each round. Pre-defined criteria were used to refine item lists after each survey. The final document included statements reaching consensus in round three. RESULTS: Thirty-five experts had a 100% response rate for all three rounds. A total of 53 items achieved over 75% consensus. The overall rate of consensus was 82.8%. Statements pertaining to PMC reconstruction and those regarding the treatment of combined cruciate and PMC injuries reached 100% consensus. Consensus was reached for 85.7% of the statements on anatomy of the PMC, 90% for those relating to diagnosis, 70% relating to classification, 64.3% relating to the treatment of isolated PMC injuries, and 83.3% relating to rehabilitation after PMC reconstruction. CONCLUSION: A modified Delphi technique was applied to generate an expert consensus statement concerning the diagnosis, classification, treatment, and rehabilitation practices for PMC injuries of the knee with high levels of expert agreement. Though the majority of statements pertaining to anatomy, diagnosis, and rehabilitation reached consensus, there remains inconsistency as to the optimal approach to treating isolated PMC injuries. Additionally, there is a need for improved PMC injury classification. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level V.

Allografts in reconstructive knee surgery are an interesting option, due to the absence of donor site morbidity, its rather easy intraoperative handling, the different sizes, shorter surgical time, and therefore less peroperative risks. The risk of infection is very low. Their results are similar when non-irradiated and non-sterilized allografts are used in terms of postoperative strength, return to sport, and comparable stability testing. Nevertheless, allografts have not yet become current practice, due to the costs, the availability, its structural integration and ligamentisation process that might be prolonged and its increased re-rupture rate in the young and active population. Its undeniable value for multiligamentous or complexe knee reconstruction is however undeniable, which should however be reserved for specialized centers.
L'allogreffe dans la chirurgie ligamentaire du genou semble être une option intéressante au vu de l'absence de site de prélèvement, d'une facilité d'utilisation, d'un choix des propriétés, d'une durée chirurgicale raccourcie et donc de risques peropératoires diminués. Le risque de transmission infectieuse est très faible. Ses résultats sont comparables à la chirurgie par autogreffe uniquement si non irradiée et non stérilisée en termes de force, retour au sport, et comparables ou légèrement inférieurs en termes de stabilité. Les allogreffes ne sont pas devenues pratiques courantes, en raison des coûts, de la disponibilité, d'une intégration, d'une transformation biologique prolongée et du taux de reruptures plus élevé chez les jeunes patients actifs. Les allogreffes sont par contre indispensables pour les reconstructions multiligamentaires et des révisions complexes.

The menisci have several important biomechanical functions. Traumatic meniscal injuries present a wide spectrum of presentation and several types of lesions. They can concern the body of the meniscus and its fixation. An easy and clear classification of traumatic meniscus tears is essential for helping the physicians to achieve the correct surgical indication and the accurate postoperative rehabilitation protocol. The aim of this current concept review is to clearly describe some classical as well new type of meniscal and menisco-synovial lesions such as ramp lesions, root tears and instability of the lateral meniscus associated to rotational laxity. The goal is to focus on the definition, diagnosis, classification, giving some guidelines and discussing the different rehabilitation protocols.
Les ménisques sont essentiels au fonctionnement biomécanique du genou. Les lésions méniscales traumatiques peuvent se manifester par des tableaux cliniques très variés et concerner le corps du ménisque, ses attaches à l'os ou à la capsule articulaire. Une classification simple et claire des déchirures méniscales traumatiques est indispensable. Cette revue de la littérature contemporaine fait un tableau précis des lésions méniscales traumatiques classiques et « nouvelles ¼ telles que celles de la rampe, les avulsions de la racine méniscale et l'instabilité du ménisque externe associée à une laxité rotatoire du genou, en se focalisant sur la définition de chacune de ces déchirures, leur diagnostic, leur classification, afin de proposer des directives de traitement et de rééducation.

PURPOSE: The European Society for Sports traumatology, Knee surgery and Arthroscopy (ESSKA) identified the need to develop a core curriculum for clinical specialists that work within the interest areas of ESSKA. A research-based approach was used to define a set of core competencies which could be used to map all of their educational activities, resources and development priorities. This paper describes the aims, development, results and implications of this competency-based core curriculum for orthopaedic conditions relevant to ESSKA members. METHODS: A Core Curriculum Working Group, with leaders and other experts representing the main specialist areas within ESSKA, reviewed existing curricula and the literature in their own specialist areas. Applying expert group methodology, they iteratively developed a draft list of 285 core competencies for Orthopedic specialists within 6 specialist areas of Knee, Shoulder, Foot/Ankle, Hip, Elbow/Forearm and Sports/Exercise. All ESSKA members were then asked to comment and rate the importance of these competencies, and the Working Group used these findings to critically review and refine the curriculum. RESULTS: The expert groups defined 56 competencies related to 10 Knee pathologies; 67 related to 15 Shoulder pathologies; 45 related to 9 Foot/Ankle pathologies; 41 related to 6 Hip pathologies; and 34 related to 12 Elbow/Forearm pathologies and 42 related to 8 Sports/Exercise pathologies. Survey respondent mean ratings were at least 'Important' for all competencies, and the Working Group used these results to separate the competencies into three levels of importance. CONCLUSION: A competency-based core curriculum for Orthopedic specialists was achieved through a systematic and scholarly approach, involving both expert opinion and engagement of the wider ESSKA membership, identifying 285 treatment competencies in 6 specialist areas. It is now being used to guide educational and strategic development for ESSKA and should also be of interest to the wider orthopedic and sports medicine communities.

Meniscectomy in a young active patient can lead to poor outcomes with pain, decreased function and long-term osteoarthritis. Meniscal allograft transplantation (MAT) has therefore been developed to address this issue. We now have 30 years of experience with this technique which is no longer considered experimental and new indications have been added. MAT allows restoration of joint biomechanics, pain relief, improvement in knee function and stability, and reduce cartilage degeneration. This is a comprehensive review of the role of menisci, the indications and principles of MAT, as well as these results.
La méniscectomie chez un jeune patient actif peut mener à de mauvais résultats avec des douleurs, une diminution de la fonction puis de l'arthrose à long terme. La transplantation d'allogreffe méniscale (TAM) a donc été développée pour répondre à cette problématique. Nous avons maintenant 30 ans de recul sur cette technique, elle n'est plus considérée comme expérimentale et de nouvelles indications ont été ajoutées. La TAM permet de restaurer la biomécanique du genou et donc de soulager les douleurs, d'améliorer la fonction et la stabilité du genou ainsi que de ralentir la dégénérescence cartilagineuse. Cet article fait le point sur le rôle des ménisques, les indications et principes de la TAM ainsi que ses résultats.

Muscle injuries are one of the most common injuries in professional and recreational sports. Their impact on absence during the games is therefore major. There are many risk factors, the main ones being a previous muscle injury, a lack of strength in the muscle in question, and the age of the athlete. Preventive medicine in this field, although essential, remains perfectible and the various preventive measures are sometimes not fully studied, or present variable evidence. Stretching, neuro-muscular exercises, muscle strengthening, nutrition or genetics can all be part of the most comprehensive preventive possible approach.
Les lésions musculaires sont l'une des blessures les plus fréquentes dans la pratique sportive professionnelle et de loisir. Leur impact sur les absences de terrain est donc majeur. Les facteurs de risque sont nombreux, avec comme facteurs principaux un antécédent de lésion musculaire, un déficit de force du muscle considéré, ainsi que l'âge du sportif. La médecine préventive dans ce domaine, pourtant essentielle, reste encore perfectible et les différentes mesures de prévention sont parfois très peu étudiées, ou présentent des évidences variables. Le stretching, les exercices neuromusculaires, le renforcement musculaire, la nutrition ou la génétique peuvent tous participer à une approche préventive la plus globale possible.

PURPOSE: To develop a statement on the diagnosis, classification, treatment, and rehabilitation concepts of posterolateral corner (PLC) injuries of the knee using a modified Delphi technique. METHODS: A working group of three individuals generated a list of statements relating to the diagnosis, classification, treatment, and rehabilitation of PLC injuries to form the basis of an initial survey for rating by an international group of experts. The PLC expert group (composed of 27 experts throughout the world) was surveyed on three occasions to establish consensus on the inclusion/exclusion of each item. In addition to rating agreement, experts were invited to propose further items for inclusion or to suggest modifications of existing items at each round. Pre-defined criteria were used to refine item lists after each survey. Statements reaching consensus in round three were included within the final consensus document. RESULTS: Twenty-seven experts (100% response rate) completed three rounds of surveys. After three rounds, 29 items achieved consensus with over 75% agreement and less than 5% disagreement. Consensus was reached in 92% of the statements relating to diagnosis of PLC injuries, 100% relating to classification, 70% relating to treatment and in 88% of items relating to rehabilitation statements, with an overall consensus of 81%. CONCLUSIONS: This study has established a consensus statement relating to the diagnosis, classification, treatment, and rehabilitation of PLC injuries. Further research is needed to develop updated classification systems, and better understand the role of non-invasive and minimally invasive approaches along with standardized rehabilitation protocols. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Consensus of expert opinion, Level V.

The return to sport (RTS) and return to competition (RTC) after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) in the recreational and professionnel sports population remains a challenge. Previous level of activity, associated injuries, the type of reconstruction, and rehabilitation associated factors such as strength, neuromuscular control, and mobility all influence the RTS and RTC. Psychologic aspects, overall fitness, and patient's expectations equally play an important role. ACLR rehabilitation needs ideally a multi-disciplinary setting and follows functional steps rather than chronological time-lines, with passing criteria until RTS and RTC. Standardized and sport-specific tests are mandatory to evaluated optimal readiness for RTS and RTC.
Le retour au sport (RTS) et à la compétition (RTC) du patient sportif amateur ou d'élite après une reconstruction du ligament croisé antérieur (RLCA) est une décision importante qui nécessite un avis éclairé et partagé entre les différents intervenants dans le traitement. Le niveau et le type d'activité prélésionel, les facteurs liés à la blessure comme les lésions associées, le type de réparation, et ceux liés à la rééducation comme la force, les compétences neuromusculaires et la mobilité influencent tous le RTS et le RTC, sans compter les aspects psychologiques, le niveau de fitness, les attentes et la situation personnelle du patient. La rééducation se fait par étapes fonctionnelles avec des critères de passage jusqu'au RTS et RTC, en collaboration multidisciplinaire. Des tests standardisés et spécifiques au sport pratiqué sont finalement nécessaires pour valider l'aptitude au retour au sport et à la compétition.
