The Sports Hernia (AKA Atheltic Pubalgia)

Starring Kyle Rudolph

            Given how specific medical terms can be, it is hard to believe that the medical community named the “sports hernia” wrong. In fact, a sports hernia doesn’t involve a hernia at all. The official definition of a hernia is a protrusion of an organ through a body wall that normally contains it (usually the abdominal wall). On the other hand, a sports hernia is a unilateral (one-sided) pain in the groin that involves no such protrusion, but is still distinguishable from other groin pains such as a groin pull or osteitis pubis (inflammation of the pubic tubercle). Sportsman’s hernia, hockey groin, and athletic pubalgia are other terms that describe this injury, but the misnomer “sports hernia” exploded in popularity as an increasing number of popular athletes underwent surgical treatment for it.

            There are many ways to obtain a sports hernia, but they basically involve some sort of disruption of the external oblique muscle aponeurosis with injury to the ilioinguinal nerve [Aponeuroses are layers of flat, broad tendons that join muscles to bones most commonly found in the abdominal, lower back, and pelvis. The ilioinguinal nerve is branch of a nerve that innervates the oblique muscle, spermatic cord, and thigh].  In a study in the UK, 67% of 35 sports hernia patients had an external oblique aponeurosis injury with the remainder of patients having a variety of problems ranging from conjoined tendons, small direct hernias, weak posterior walls, and lipomas of spermatic cord [A lipoma is a benign tumor made up of fatty tissue that may pressure cords involved in the male reproductive system]. Other conditions like osteitis pubis and musculotendinous strain of the adductor muscles could also aggravate the sports hernia (Kumar et al., 2002).

            Sports hernias often result from chronic, repetitive trauma to the musculotendinous portion of the groin, namely the inguinal region. It can develop quietly without a sudden onset of pain. During a study with hockey players, predictive groin injuries were found in those with a history of similar injury, older players, and those who lacked conditioning (Emery & Meeuwisse, 2001). Sports that require athletes to bend, lean forward, and maintain the “athletic stance”. Twisting, turning, and torqueing (and maybe twerking, be careful Miley!) could strain the aponeuroses. Sports hernias make it painful for patients to perform simple, exercise maneuvers such as sit-ups, or crunches (LeBlanc & LeBlanc, 2003). Intra-abdominal pressure like sneezing, coughing, and defecation may also aggravate symptoms.  

            Conservative measures such as resting, icing, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and physical therapy may be used to treat sports hernias. However, recovery is often slow and leaves a higher possibility for recurring symptoms compared to those who opt for surgical treatment. For high performance athletes who have paychecks and championship aspirations on the line, surgery is the primary option. In a study with athletes who have shown sports hernia symptoms for more than 3 months, 27 of 30 patients with laparoscopic surgery and mesh replacement returned to athletic activities within 3 months. In contrast, only 8 of 30 patients who underwent a physical therapy regimen managed to recover within the same time frame. A laparoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive procedure in which a small camera is inserted through a 1.5 cm incision to help provide a visual of the wound. In most cases, a mesh is then inserted to repair the injury. In the same study, at the one-year follow up, 29 of 30 surgical patients have returned to full activity while 7 of 30 patients who were treated conservatively eventually opted for surgery. The remainder of nonsurgical patients continued to have recurring symptoms (Paajanen et al., 2011). Today, with the rise of technology and understanding of the injury, long-term improvement is seen up to 90% of surgically treated patients (Paajanen et al., 2004; Meyers et al., 2008). For fantasy purposes, a typical timetable for return varies from 3-8 weeks.

  Relevant players:

Kyle Rudolph, TE, Minnesota Vikings: The TE position has been a desolate wasteland this year. Besides Jimmy Graham and Julius Thomas, there really isn’t anyone you can depend on to provide consistent production. Rookies (Larry Donnel) and veterans (Antonio Gates) alike have been performing very inconsistently, like a “fantasy whack-a-mole” as the great Matthew Berry would say. However, the Vikings will be returning one of the more consistent TEs in the league from a sports hernia injury this week. Kyle Rudolph left the Week 3 (9/21) matchup against the Saints and returned to practice on 11/4. Although he missed Week 10, the Vikings are banking on a Week 11 return in the division battle against the Bears. Over his past 26 games, which spans 3 years, Rudolph has scored 13 TDs. With Teddy Bridgewater taking the helm for the Vikings, Rudolph should see his production increase compared to his before the injury when he was catching passes from Matt Cassel. Looking at the rest of the league’s TEs, there’s nowhere else to go but up with Rudolph. I’m feeling a 4 receptions, 45 yards receiving, 0 TD game as he gets acclimated into game speed.

Donnie Avery, WR, Kansas City Chiefs: Avery underwent sports hernia surgery on 10/2 and has already missed 5 weeks. He suffered his sports hernia injury during the Chief’s blowout win against the Patriots in Week 3. The Chiefs have continued to win without Avery and it seems like there is no rush to hurry him back on to the field. After the attention he received from Alex Smith in Week 1, where he was targeted 13 times, he averaged just a little over 2 targets per game. Here’s also another crazy stat: through Week 10, no Chiefs WR have caught a receiving TD yet. All of Smith’s TD passes have gone to either a TE or RB. Even when Avery returns, his fantasy stock is minimal at best and shouldn’t be on anyone’s roster.

Jason Kelce, C, Philadelphia Eagles: Slowly, key pieces of the Eagles OL have been returning from injury, transforming them into a very dangerous team in the postseason. The latest addition was Jason Kelce, who returned to anchor the OL in Week 9 after having sports hernia surgery late September. Often overlooked and underappreciated, the OL is vital to a team’s offensive success (just ask Cam Newton and the Carolina Panthers OL, ouch). If the Eagles start winning the battle up front, it won’t be a surprise if the fantasy stocks of all Eagles skill players (RB, WR, QB, TE) rise.
