Abstract (2. Language): 
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of long term playing soccer on the lumbar spine degeneration. Fifty six subjects participated in this study. Four groups which were active soccer players, veteran soccer players and their control groups were organized to measure their lumbar spine degeneration. Isokinetic trunk muscle strength, radiological examinations of lumbar and spinal flexibility were measured in order to examine the degree of degeneration of subjects. Isokinetic trunk strength was measured with the Biodex System Dynamometer. Plain lateral radiographs were performed by using Kellegren and Lawrence score to determine the presence of degenerative changes of each lumbar vertebra and spinal flexibility was measured by a modified Schober test. Results indicated a significant difference between the active soccer players and the veteran soccer players in terms of lumbar disc degeneration (p<0.05) in favor of veteran soccer players. Among these groups, veteran soccer players displayed greater lumbar disc degeneration. However, there was no significant difference between both soccer player groups and their control groups in terms of lumbar disc degeneration. Active soccer group players’ showed greater trunk extension strength at 60º/s. than the other groups in the study (p<0.05). Findings of the current study did not support the idea that playing soccer at high intensity training at a long period of time may cause lumbar spine degeneration since the getting a non-significant difference between control and active group.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Bu çalışmanın amacı uzun süre futbol oynamanın bel omur dejenerasyonu üzerine etkisini araştırmaktır. Bu çalışmaya 56 kişi katılmıştır. Katılımcılar aktif futbolcular, veteran futbolcular ve bu grupların kontrol grupları olmak üzere dört gruba ayrılmış ve bel omur dejenerasyonları ölçülmüştür. Katılımcıların bel omurlarındaki dejenerasyon izokinetik gövde kuvveti, bel esneklik ve radyolojik bel ölçümleri yapılarak saptanmıştır. İzokinetik gövde kuvveti Biodex Sistem Dinamometresi ile ölçülmüştür. Bel omurlarındaki dejenerasyon yan yüzey röntgenleri Kellgren ve Lowrence puanlaması kullanılarak ölçülmüştür ve bel esneklik ölçümü ise modifiye edilmiş Schober test aracılığıyla yapılmıştır. Veteran futbolcuların bel omurlarında aktif futbolculardan daha fazla dejenerasyon görülmüştür (p<0.05). Fakat her iki grup kendi kontrol grupları ile karşılaştırıldığında bel omur dejenerasyonları için anlamlı bir fark bulunmamıştır. Buna ek olarak, aktif futbolcuların 60º/sn. ekstansiyon kuvvetlerinin diğer gruplardaki futbolculardan daha fazla olduğu bulunmuştur (p<0.05). Çalışmanın uzun süre futbol oynamanın bel omurları üzerinde dejenerasyona sebep olabileceği tartışması; futbol grupları ve kontrol grupları arasında anlamlı fark bulunmadığı için desteklenmemektedir.
