Abstract

I wrote this article originally for Terry Ainsworth’s excellent website ‘Soccer nostalgia’ – sadly now defunct. It didn’t take me long to decide on the subject for my article. In my long career as an Orthopaedic surgeon I’ve come across some strange and incredible sports related injuries and I’ve raided my memory banks to record them here. Sadly, a few of them are my own. I dedicate this article to Terry and to all the sportsmen and sportswomen who have worked hard to recover from their injuries and return to the sport they love.
