Ten-Year Epidemiology of Ankle Injuries in Men's and Women's Collegiate Soccer Players.

CONCLUSIONS: Although the rate of ankle injuries did not change between the 2004-2005 through 2008-2009 seasons and the 2009-2010 through 2013-2014 seasons, the prognoses improved. Among the 4 most common ankle injuries, high ankle sprains resulted in the worst prognosis. Overall, male and female NCAA soccer players injured their ankles at similar rates; however, men were more likely to sustain contact injuries. PMID: 31390272 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
