Abstract
This narrative review describes the current evidence of tendon injuries in sports with a special focus on the different pathomorphological variations, their localization and risk factors. In addition to this, epidemiological features such as incidence, age and gender distribution are discussed, both for injuries and tendinopathies of the upper and lower extremity.
