The elbow is actually a relatively simple hinge joint that is constrained or stabilized by a combination of the bones fitting together, the ligaments that hold the bones together, and then the ...

Injury or irritation to the muscles, tendons, ligaments, or nerves that support the elbow joint can often cause inner elbow pain. This pain often stems from overuse and repetitive stress but can ...

Early motion is the key to a good result and operative repair of the ligaments does not appear to influence the functional outcome. Restoration of elbow stability after fracture-dislocation ...

The previous described valgus and internal rotatory forces result in microtrauma of the UCL and eventually attenuation of the ligament. Attenuation of UCL leads to abnormal valgus movement of the ...

Our results agree with findings of Singh et al 19 that no numerical value can confidently determine the pathological status of the ulnar collateral ligament of the elbow when using stress radiography.

Pitchers with deficits in total shoulder rotation range of motion (ROM) are 2.6 times more likely to experience an elbow injury. Despite the effects of shoulder ROM on elbow injury, it is currently ...
