What Chirurgie du Sport does

Chirurgie du Sport, operating through the legal entity SELARL CDS, is a private hyper-specialized sports orthopaedics and traumatology practice based in Paris, France. The clinic focuses exclusively on surgical and medical management of injuries to the knee, shoulder, hip, and ankle, with particular depth in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction where it is ranked first nationally and performs over 1,000 ligamentoplasties per year. Its team of seven orthopaedic surgeons delivers care across multiple consultation centers in the Paris metropolitan area (Boulevard Saint-Marcel, Préfontaine-Cortambert, Espace Médical Vauban, Institut Médico Sportif Préfontaine) under the umbrella of the Clinique du Sport operated by the Ramsay Santé private hospital group.

The practice's core technology stack centers on minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery, 3D scanner-based prosthesis planning with custom cutting guides, 3D-printed patient-specific implants, locoregional anesthesia for ambulatory procedures, and in-house medical imaging including X-ray, ultrasound, MRI, CT, and EOS. Additional services include PRP injections, meniscal suturing, cartilage repair and transplant, and rotator cuff surgery, all positioned around same-day ambulatory care pathways.

Revenue is generated through professional services fees from consultations, surgical procedures, and in-house imaging, with pricing not publicly disclosed and appointments booked primarily via Doctolib. The go-to-market is direct-to-consumer, targeting individual athletes and active patients in the Île-de-France region, with additional outreach to professional sports clubs and federations (including the French Football Federation) and visibility through a multilingual website, social media channels, and an annual Sports Surgery Congress hosted at Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital.

Expansion highlights5 records

Emerging players

• Aspetar Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine Hospital: Qatar-based specialized sports medicine hospital treating elite athletes across multiple sports federations. Comparable in its dedicated-sports-clinic model and partnerships with professional sports organizations (e.g., football federations).
• Centre Médico-Chirurgical de Réadaptation des Massues: Lyon-based rehabilitation and orthopaedic centre with a sports medicine focus. Comparable in addressing sports-related musculoskeletal conditions, though with a stronger rehabilitation orientation than the surgical focus of Chirurgie du Sport.

Direct peers

• Fortius Clinic: London-based specialist orthopaedic and sports medicine clinic with a sub-specialist surgeon model treating elite athletes and active patients. Closely comparable in mission (sports orthopaedics), patient mix, and surgeon-led delivery, though operating in the UK private-pay market.
• Institut de Chirurgie Orthopédique et Sportive (IRCOS): French specialist orthopaedic and sports surgery institute. Comparable as a sub-specialist surgical group focused on sports traumatology with similar procedure mix (ACL, meniscus, shoulder).
• Centre Orthopédique Santy: Lyon-based private orthopaedic and sports surgery clinic with a comparable focus on knee, shoulder, and hip sports pathology, including ACL reconstruction. Operates as a specialist group practice analogous to Chirurgie du Sport within a different metropolitan catchment.
• Kerlan-Jobe Institute (Cedars-Sinai Kerlan-Jobe): Los Angeles-based sports medicine and orthopaedic surgery institute historically serving professional athletes. Comparable in sub-specialist sports surgery focus, elite athlete patient segment, and surgeon-led model.
• Clinique du Sport de Bordeaux (CCOS): French private clinic specializing in sports orthopaedic surgery in the Bordeaux region. Directly comparable in service mix (arthroscopy, ligament reconstruction, joint prostheses) and target patient profile (athletes and active individuals).

Broad incumbents

• Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS): US-based world-leading orthopaedic hospital specializing in sports medicine and joint surgery. Comparable at the category level (sports orthopaedics leader) and serves as a benchmark for the international reputation path Chirurgie du Sport is pursuing.
• Schoen Klinik: German private hospital group with a strong orthopaedic and sports medicine specialization. Comparable at the network level as a scaled, sub-specialized private orthopaedic operator against which Chirurgie du Sport's single-site model can be benchmarked.

Others

• Ramsay Santé (Clinique du Sport parent network): Major French private hospital group hosting the Clinique du Sport facility where Chirurgie du Sport operates. Comparable as the infrastructure and strategic enabler rather than a clinical competitor; relevant as both a partnership anchor and a potential acquirer.
