  • Title: Acute hand injuries in athletes.
    Author: Rosenbaum YA, Awan HM.
    Journal: Phys Sportsmed; 2017 May; 45(2):151-158. PubMed ID: 28287016.
    Abstract:
    Hand and wrist injuries in athletes are common, representing between 3 and 25% of all sports injuries. As many as a quarter of all sports injuries involve the hand or wrist. We review the recent literature regarding acute hand injuries in athletes based on the structures involved - bone, muscle/tendon, ligament, and neurovascular - including diagnosis and pathophysiology of these injuries, focusing on athlete-specific facets of treatment, and when available, opinions on return to play.
