Sports injury surgeon
A sports injury surgeon is an orthopaedic surgeon who has chosen to undertake further training in sports medicine surgery. This means the treatment of a wide range of injuries caused by participation in a sporting activity at both amateur and professional level.
They operate on a wide range of sports injuries which include ruptured Achilles tendon, torn knee cartilage and fractures.
Examples of sports injury surgery include:
- Meniscus repair
- Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) repair
- Hamstring tendon graft
- Rotator cuff surgery
- Ankle arthroscopy
- Patella tendonitis surgery
Most sports injury surgeons prefer to specialise in a particular field, for example, knee injuries.
