Valgus extension overload syndrome in adolescent baseball players: Clinical characteristics and surgical outcomes

摘要

Lateral ulnar collateral ligament (LUCL) is the most common structure to reconstruct in posterolateral rotatory instability (PLRI) of the elbow. Numerous surgical techniques had been described for isometric LUCL reconstruction in order to provide equivocal forces transmission to the elbow joint. To date, isometric LUCL reconstruction is poorly under- stood. Many studies only focus on static analysis with single strand tech- nique. Double strand LUCL reconstruction will counter varus and PLRI by having 2 separate strands. We performed a study to analyze the kinematics of double strands LUCL reconstruction with 3 surgical techniques in a dynamic mode. Materials and.
