“…Joint pain in the knee areas was indicated by 21% of GKs (5 of 24) [61]. Fractures of tibia and fibula are the most common in youth football players over 13 years of age and are hallmarked by delayed return to sport and complications [76]. Though these fractures are common in football, GKs are less prone to fractures of the lower leg.…”

Injuries and Pain Associated with Goalkeeping in Football—Review of the Literature

et al. 2021

Knowledge and research about football goalkeeper (GK) injuries are scarce, which prevents the development of evidence-based injury prevention programs. Fortunately, progress is evident in injury prevention strategies in outfield football players. However, a GK fulfills a unique role, and an injured GK can substantially impact a team. Thus, there is a need to clarify and summarize current knowledge concerning football goalkeeper pain and injuries. This narrative review aims to present the best-evidence synthesis of knowledge about football GK injuries and pain, their type, location, and incidence. A secondary aim is to contrast these findings with outfield players and identify knowledge gaps. Scientific databases were searched for the following indexed terms: goalkeeper, injury, soccer, and football. Original papers, including case studies and systematic reviews published from August 1994 to March 2021, were screened for relevance using a priori criteria and reviewed. Commonly described injuries are fractures, luxation and dislocations in the fingers, hand and wrist. The quadriceps femoris and forearms muscles are the most frequently described muscle and tendon injuries. Further, football GK injuries differ in type, location, and incidence compared to outfield players. Whether GKs suffer fewer injuries than players in other positions, whether GK suffer more injuries in training than matches, and whether they sustain more upper limb injuries comparing to field players is still unclear and controversial. Few studies assess pain, and current data point to the development of hip and groin, thigh, knee, arm and forearm pain resulting from training and match play. Due to the crucial role of GK in the football team, it is recommended to use the injury burden as a parameter considering the number and time-loss of injuries in future studies.

“…Hence, it is very susceptible to injury, easy to crack and even the worst part will break (Dursun et al, 2020). In addition to traffic accidents, the most frequent causes of fibular trauma are in sports, especially football (Werner et al, 2017;Zaki et al, 2020). Fig.…”

This study analyzed the design performance of SS316L-based plate implant for fibula restoration using a Finite Element Analysis approach. The simulated model design has dimensions of 35 x 5 x 1.5 mm and five holes with 2-3 configuration. The results of the bending test simulation showed that the values for both displacement and Von Mises stress that occurred (0.008 mm and 116 MPa of each) were still considerably below the yield stress of the SS316L material. The same results were also shown in the tensile test simulation, although the clamping setting on the plate was changed on the other side. From this finite element analysis approach, the SS316L-based five-hole plate implant design has a fairly good strength performance as a fibular bone-implant restoration product.
