  • $\cdot$ Arthroscopic management is the effective method with acceptable results for coronoid impingement of stiff elbow contributing to the functional improvement and pain relief. $\cdot$ The functional improvement and pain relief seem to be affected by the severity of a degenerative change of the elbow joint. $\cdot$ Excision of coronoid process is required in a marked limitation of further flexion in addition to deeping of the coronoid fossa and anterior capsular release. $\cdot$ Excision of olecranon tip or posterior capsular release are effective method in severe flexion contracture.

  • Background: The objective of this research is to provide base line data on Korea Baseball rehabilitation treatment by presenting the distribution of upper extremity surgeries according the surgical sites of Korean professional baseball players. Methods: The targets of this research are 561 players from nine Korean baseball clubs. The number of players that have undergone surgery was investigated. In other words, the frequency of shoulder joint surgeries, elbow joint surgeries, and wrist and hand surgeries per each baseball club was investigated. Results: The number of the players who have had surgeries was 151, but among the players, there were some who have had repeated surgeries for which the total number of surgery experience was 162. The result showed that elbow joint surgeries were the most frequently enacted, followed by shoulder joint surgeries, and wrist and hand surgeries. From the nine clubs, Samsung was the club with the highest frequency of surgeries. Conclusions: This research shows that Korean professional baseball players need special training centers with systematic rehabilitation programs. Another conclusion suggests that urgent need for rehabilitation program of upper arm which particularly focused on elbow joint is existing. On the basis of this research, we expect more studies on the specific rehabilitation programs which is categorized by injury areas.

  • Acromioclavicular (AC) joint dislocations account for about 9% of shoulder injuries. Among them, acute high-grade injury following high-energy trauma accounts for a large proportion of patients requiring surgical treatment. However, there is no gold standard procedure for operative treatment of acute high-grade AC joint injury, and several different procedures have been used for this purpose in clinical practice. This review article summarizes the most recent and relevant surgical options for acute high-grade AC joint dislocation patients and the outcomes of each treatment type.

  • Irreducible dislocation of the elbow is an uncommon event. We present the case of a posterolateral elbow dislocation after a fall injury in a 67-year-old woman. A closed reduction performed in the emergency department was unsuccessful since the limited passive range of motion resulted in difficulty to perform longitudinal traction and flexion. Computed tomography images showed that the posterolateral aspect of the capitellum was impacted by the tip of the coronoid process, thus appearing similar to the Hill-Sachs lesion in the humeral head. Subsequent open reduction of the elbow revealed the dislocation to be irreducible since the tip of the coronoid process had wedged into a triangular Hill-Sachs-like lesion in the capitellum. The joint was reduced by providing distal traction on the forearm, and main fragments were disengaged using digital pressure. At the 3-month follow-up, the patient reported no dislocations, and had an acceptable range of motion. Thus, we propose that to avoid iatrogenic injury to the joint or other nearby structures, irreducible dislocations should not be subjected to repeated manipulation.

상완골 과상부 골절후 발생한 내반주 변형에 대한 삼차원 교정 절골술 (Three-Dimensional Corrective Osteotomy for Treatment of Cubitus Varus after Supracondylar Fracture of the Humerus)

  • Cubitus varus deformity after supracondylar fracture of the humerus in children generally includes deformities of varus, hyperextension and internal rotation. Recently almost all corrective osteotomies for treatment of the varus deformity have been limited to correction of only the varus or of the varus and hyperextension deformity. Electromyographic study has revealed unphysiological joint motion and muscle activity around the joint in elbows with cubitus varus, hyperextension and internal rotation deformity. On this basis we have successfully attempted simultaneous correction of all three deformities. The end results in ] 3 elbows have been satisfactory without any complications such as delayed union, limitation of elbow motion or nerve palsy. In conclusion, we recommend simultaneous correction of the three elements of cubitus varus deformity to restore anatomic alignment of the elbow joint.

  • There is no line of demarcation between the shoulder and elbow regions. Pain In the arm may originate at the shoulder with reference downwards or less often at the elbow with reference upwards. Most pains indicated by the patient at the elbow or forearm have a local origin, since at the more distal part of the upper limb the capacity for correct localization is good. Once it is clear that the elbow region is at fault, the joint and the muscles about it are tested by ten movements. 1. Four. Passive extension, flexion, pronation, supination-full range, LOM, painful, painless. 2. Four. Resisted extension, flexion, pronation, supination-strong, weak, painful, painless. 3. Two. Resisted flexion, extension at the wrist-painful, painless. The muscles that perform theses two movements arise from the humeral epicondyles and a lesion in either often causes pain felt at the elbow although the tissuse affected is not functionally a part of the elbow (i. e. Tennis elbow and Golfer's elbow).
