[Excessive stress damage of the lower extremity caused by sports. The value of sonographic diagnosis in stress damage of the lower extremity].
150 sportsmen with lesions and diseases of the lower extremity served as basis for demonstrating the possibilities offered by diagnosis via sonography. Main indications were articular and paraarticular diseases of the large joints (hip and knee) to demonstrate effusions, ganglia, bursae and tendon ruptures, diseases and injuries of the musculature at the thigh and lower leg, as well as the Achilles tendon with its various changes such as rupture, achillodynia and peritendinitis. Muscular and tendon ruptures can be differentiated via sonography in respect of extension, type, age and localisation. This makes differentiated treatment possible. Intraarticular lesions of the knee joint remain the domain of arthroscopy. Sonographic findings should always be supplemented by anamnesis, clinical findings and x-ray film so as not to overlook any bony injuries and damage of the capsular ligaments.
