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.
