Study Notes
Elbow Conditions Overview
-
Lateral Epicondylitis (Tennis Elbow) is characterized by pain on the outer side of the elbow due to overuse of wrist extensors.
-
Medial Epicondylitis (Golfer's Elbow) presents with pain on the inner side of the elbow associated with overuse of wrist flexors.
-
Annular Ligament Injury involves a tear in the annular ligament, which can lead to instability and pain around the elbow.
-
Osteochondritis Dissecans refers to degenerative changes in the capitellum, often seen in young athletes, leading to joint pain and possible loose bodies.
-
Radial Head Fracture occurs from trauma and presents with pain and swelling at the elbow, typically affecting range of motion.
-
Distal Biceps Tendon Rupture involves a rupture or tendinopathy of the distal biceps tendon, causing pain in the anterior elbow and weakness in elbow flexion.
-
Elbow Dislocation results from high energy injuries, leading to displacement of the bones in the joint and significant pain and swelling.
-
Olecranon Stress Fracture involves a stress fracture at the olecranon tip, often due to repetitive stress or overuse, resulting in localized pain at the elbow.
