Degloving intramuscular injuries of the semimembranosus and adductor longus muscles in adolescent soccer players.

Degloving muscle injury was described for the rectus femoris where the inner bipennate component is dissociated from its superficial unipennate component. The semimembranosus muscle displays a distinctive dual morphology, featuring both unipennate and bipennate muscle fibers. Nevertheless, this specific tear pattern has not been previously documented. Conversely, the adductor longus muscle showcases an elongated intramuscular tendon segment, indicating a multipennate morphology. We present two separate cases of previous undescribed degloving injuries of the semimembranosus and the adductor longus in teenage soccer players with MRI and ultrasound diagnosis, ultrasound-guided hematoma aspiration, and recovery timelines for return-to-play.
