The most common cause of the Achilles tendon ruptures in the U.S. population is sports, basketball is one among them. It is not one of the most frequent injuries of this sport, but it is one of the most serious and impactful in its practice. The objective of this work is to gather evidence and evaluate the relationship between Achilles' tendon ruptures and basketball. This study designed as a systematic review. A search of literature in the databases PubMed, Cochrane Library, and ClinicalTrials.gov was conducted during January and February 2020. After the search and selection, three relevant articles were obtained due to their epidemiological content, Raikin et al and Lemme et al. In 2013 and 2018, they, respectively, conducted studies in U.S. populations, establishing sport as the most frequent injury mechanism in Achilles' tendon ruptures. It was analyzed according to injury mechanism, gender, body mass index (BMI), and age. In both studies, the lesion resulted more frequently in men and the sport involved in most of the cases was basketball (32 and 42.6%, respectively). In 2019, Lemme et al published an epidemiological design analyzing the Achilles tendon ruptures in the National Basketball Association (NBA), identifying risk factors and results in professional players. After suffering the injury, 36.8% of the patients had to retire or were holders in less than 10 games to the rest of their sports career. The relationship between basketball and Achilles' tendon rupture is clear in the general population. Despite this, new studies are required to complement the evidence obtained so far.
在美国人群中，跟腱断裂最常见的原因是运动，篮球是其中之一。它并非这项运动中最常见的损伤，但却是在其运动实践中最严重且影响最大的损伤之一。 这项工作的目的是收集证据并评估跟腱断裂与篮球之间的关系。 本研究设计为一项系统评价。 2020年1月和2月期间，在PubMed、Cochrane图书馆和ClinicalTrials.gov数据库中进行了文献检索。 经过检索和筛选，由于其流行病学内容获得了三篇相关文章，即Raikin等人和Lemme等人的文章。他们分别在2013年和2018年对美国人群进行了研究，确定运动是跟腱断裂最常见的损伤机制。根据损伤机制、性别、体重指数（BMI）和年龄进行了分析。在两项研究中，损伤在男性中更为常见，且大多数病例所涉及的运动是篮球（分别为32%和42.6%）。2019年，Lemme等人发表了一项流行病学设计，分析了美国职业篮球联赛（NBA）中的跟腱断裂情况，确定了职业球员的风险因素和结果。受伤后，36.8%的患者不得不退役或在其剩余的运动生涯中代表球队出场不到10场比赛。 在普通人群中，篮球与跟腱断裂之间的关系是明确的。尽管如此，仍需要新的研究来补充迄今为止获得的证据。
