The elbow is a complex, highly constrained joint that provides critical range of motion to the
upper extremity needed for performing the normal activities of daily living. The elbow is …

Contracture of the elbow is a common complication of fractures, dislocations, burns, etc.,
around the elbow. The stiff or contracted elbow is defined as an elbow with a reduction in …

Background: The lateral ulnar collateral ligament, the entire lateral collateral ligament
complex, and the overlying extensor muscles have all been suggested as key stabilizers …

We describe the intermediate results of lateral ligamentous repair or reconstruction for
posterolateral rotatory instability of the elbow. Between 1986 and 1999, we performed 12 …

We sought to determine the lateral soft-tissue injury pattern in a consecutive series of
patients with elbow dislocation (10 cases) or fracture-dislocation (52 cases) that required …

Elbow stability is afforded by both static and dynamic structures. Static structures include the
complex bony architecture and soft-tissue stabilizers. Knowledge of the anatomy and …

The elbow is the second most commonly dislocated major joint in adults. Good long-term
outcomes have been reported after non-operative management; however, a small …

HYPOTHESIS: Lateral ulnar collateral ligament (LUCL) reconstruction is a commonly used
surgical approach for the treatment of posterolateral rotatory instability (PLRI). We …

The influence of muscle activity and forearm position on the stability of the lateral collateral
ligament deficient elbow was investigated in vitro, using a custom testing apparatus to …

The role of the coronoid process in varus osteoarticular stability of the elbow was
investigated in 10 cadaveric elbows. Testing was performed at multiple flexion angles after …
