Objetivo: Este estudo tem como objetivo estimar a prevalência de sintomas e lesões em tenistas, bem como seu tipo, localização, mecanismo e fatores de risco. Métodos: A amostra foi
constituída por 345 atletas de tênis, com idades entre 18 e 76 anos, sendo 212 (61,8%) do sexo masculino. O instrumento de medida foi um questionário referente à caracterização da população e aspectos relacionados à modalidade, sintomas e lesões. Resultados: 332 (96,8%) atletas referiram sintomas nos últimos 12 meses e 201 atletas (58,6%) referiram lesão em um período de 12 meses, totalizando 383 lesões. A taxa lesiva foi de 7,79 lesões por 1.000 horas de prática. As áreas sintomáticas mais comuns foram a coluna lombar. Uma esquerda com duas mãos e o uso preferencial de piso duro aumentam os sintomas no tornozelo/pé e ombro/braço. As lesões mais comuns foram lesões articulares localizadas no tornozelo. O tenista que pratica competição teve
maior prevalência de lesões e maior prevalência no cotovelo/antebraço e tornozelo/pé. Lesão eémais aguda no membro superior e gradual no membro inferior ocorreu no treinamento. O uso
excessivo foi a principal causa de lesão. Conclusões: Os dados revelaram alta prevalência de lesões e sintomas em atletas de tênis. A estrutura e a região corporal mais afetadas foram, respectivamente, lesões nas articulações e no joelho.
Objective: This study aims to estimate the prevalence of symptoms and injury in tennis players, as well as their type, location, mechanism of injury and risk factors. Methods: The sample was constituted by 345 tennis athletes, aged 18 to 76, being 212 (61.8%) male. The measurement instrument was a questionnaire concerning characterization of the population, tennis practice, the symptoms and injuries. Results: 247 (79,9 %) athletes referred having symptoms in the last 12 months. 201 athletes (58,6%) referred having an injury in a 12-month period, totalizing 283 injuries. There were 7.79 injuries per 1,000 hours of tennis play. The most common symptomatic areas were the lumbar spine. Two-handed backhand stroke and a preferentially use of hard-court increased symptoms in ankle/foot and shoulder/arm. The most common injuries were joint injuries located in the ankle. Tennis player who practice competition had a higher prevalence of injury and higher prevalence in elbow/forearm and ankle/foot. Lesion where more acute in upperlimb and gradual in lower-limb, occurred in training. Excessive use was the main cause of lesion. Conclusions: Data revealed a high prevalence of injuries and symptoms in tennis athletes. The most structure and body region affected was respectively joint injuries and the knee.
