Jumper\u2019s knee, or proximal patellar tendinopathy, is commonly seen among athletes in leg explosive sports, and for a subgroup surgical treatment is needed. The aim of this study was to identify what type of sports were most frequent among athletes treated surgically for Jumper\u2019s knee at an international tendon clinic during a consecutive 13\u2010year period. Methods<\/jats:italic>. The study included 344 consecutive patients (306 males, mean age 27\u2009years, range 17\u201358; 38 females, mean age 24\u2009years, range 18\u201344) from 21 different countries seeking help for therapy\u2010resistant jumper\u2019s knee. There were 274 elite athletes, 168 being full\u2010time professionals. All were diagnosed to have tendinopathy in the proximal patellar tendon and were operated on with ultrasound\u2010 and Doppler\u2010guided arthroscopic shaving surgery. Results<\/jats:italic>. The single most common sport was football (n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200995, 28%), followed by rugby (n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200937, 11%) and handball (n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200932, 9%), with 117 (34%) playing at a professional level. The rest of the athletes participated in 17 other different elite sports and nine recreational sports (running\/jogging, padel, squash, biking, gym training, bowling, cheerleading, dancing, and ultimate frisbee). Conclusions<\/jats:italic>. Football was the most common sport among patients requiring surgical treatment for jumper\u2019s knee, constituting 28% of all patients, and together with rugby and handball they constituted almost half of all patients. There was a wide sport distribution with 29 different team and individual sports represented.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2024\/5534733","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,29]],"date-time":"2024-06-29T08:05:01Z","timestamp":1719648301000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Football Was the Most Common Sport among 344 Consecutive Athletes Treated Surgically for Jumper\u2019s Knee at an International Tendon Clinic"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2024","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4109-7606","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"H\u00e5kan","family":"Alfredson","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9977-334X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Christoph","family":"Spang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6790-4042","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Markus","family":"Wald\u00e9n","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,29]]},"reference":[{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_8_1_2","DOI":"10.1177\/0363546504270454"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_8_2_2","DOI":"10.1177\/0363546511413370"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_8_3_2","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0838.2009.00949.x"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_8_4_2","DOI":"10.2519\/jospt.2015.5987"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_8_5_2","DOI":"10.1007\/s00167-014-3028-z"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_8_6_2","DOI":"10.4236\/pst.2015.31001"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_8_7_2","DOI":"10.1136\/bmjsem-2020-000803"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_8_8_2","DOI":"10.1007\/s00402-023-04998-5"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_8_9_2","DOI":"10.1177\/0363546511408877"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_8_10_2","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0034-1375695"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"e_1_2_8_11_2","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ptsp.2023.02.009"}],"container-title":["Translational Sports Medicine"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1155\/2024\/5534733","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,29]],"date-time":"2024-06-29T08:05:05Z","timestamp":1719648305000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1155\/2024\/5534733"}},"subtitle":[],"editor":[{"given":"Stig Peter","family":"Magnusson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"editor","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2024,1]]},"references-count":11,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2024,1]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1155\/2024\/5534733"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1155\/2024\/5534733","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["2573-8488","2573-8488"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"2573-8488"},{"type":"electronic","value":"2573-8488"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2024,1]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2024-04-12","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2024-06-11","order":1,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2024-06-29","order":2,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}],"article-number":"5534733"}}
