We aimed to conduct a systematic video analysis of professional basketball players who experienced lateral ankle sprain using the YouTube database. On 05.02.2024, YouTube search engine was used. The terms ‘lateral ankle sprain’, ‘lateral ankle injury’, ‘lateral ankle sprain sports’, ‘lateral ankle injury sports’ were searched. 32 videos belonging to basketball players were included in the study. The mechanisms The foot and ankle position at the time of injury was evaluated. 24 videos occurred as a result of indirect contact injuries. Varus-adduction was present in 31 (%96,8) videos. Foot was in internal rotation in 22 (%68,75) videos and forefoot was in neutral position in 10 (%31,25) videos. Varus and internal rotation are the mechanisms that can cause lateral ankle sprain in basketball. In particular, indirect contact mechanisms may play a role in varus and internal rotation of the foot.

Elit Basketbol Oyuncularında Lateral Ayak Bileği Yaralanmalarının Sistematik Video Analizi

Öz

YouTube veri tabanını kullanarak lateral ayak bileği burkulması yaşayan profesyonel basketbolcuların sistematik video analizini yapmayı amaçladık. 05.02.2023 tarihinde YouTube arama motoru kullanıldı.‘Lateral ankle sprain’, ‘lateral ankle injury’, ‘lateral ankle sprain sports’, ‘lateral ankle injury sports’ terimleri ile arama yapıldı. Basketbol oyuncularına ait 32 video çalışmaya dahil edildi. Mekanizmalar Yaralanma anındaki ayak ve ayak bileği pozisyonu değerlendirildi. 24 video indirekt temas yaralanmaları sonucu meydana geldi. 31 videoda (%96,8) varus adduksiyon mevcuttu. Ayak 22 videoda (%68,75) iç rotasyonda ve 10 videoda (%31,25) ön ayak nötral pozisyondaydı. Varus ve iç rotasyon, basketbolda lateral ayak bileği burkulmalarına neden olabilen mekanizmalardır. Özellikle indirekt temas mekanizmaları ayağın varus ve iç rotasyonunda rol oynayabilir.
