“…Unfortunately, athletes with this type of injury exhibit some loss of terminal extension, such as was observed in this patient. 6 Injury to the ulnar collateral ligament can be a catastrophic injury for the throwing athlete due to the repetitive valgus load imparted on the elbow. Because of the demands placed on this ligament, rupture generally requires surgical reconstruction, especially in elite-level athletes, in order to return them to their previous level of play.…”

“…È sempre necessario escludere in urgenza questa lesione con radiografia dell'avambraccio in toto comparativa in due proiezioni che mettano in evidenza un plus ulnare unilaterale, in particolar modo nei casi di traumi ad alta energia [2][3][4][5][6][7]. Le radiografie dell'avambraccio in toto in posizione neutra sono d'obbligo in questi casi, associate alle Rx mirate del gomito.…”

“…La ricostruzione e l'osteosintesi del capitello radiale è sempre da preferirsi, se possibile, ma la presenza di una frattura scomposta con multipli frammenti non permette sempre la ricostruzione del capitello. In questi casi si rende necessaria la rimozione dei frammenti del capitello radiale, ma la presenza di una concomitante lesione della membrana interossea può causare la migrazione prossimale del radio, con conseguenze disastrose per la biomeccanica dell'avambraccio [2][3][4][5][6][7]. Il radio appare accorciato, con relativo plus ulnare che crea un conflitto ulno-carpico.…”

“…The most common mechanism of the injury is the fall on the hand with an outstretched elbow which creates hyperextension forces in the joint (4). Although this pathology is relatively common, concomitant vascular injuries are rare: from 5% to 13% in open or complex dislocations (associated with bony lesions) and only up to 0.5% in simple closed dislocations (3,(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10). In the literature, it is suggested as surprisingly low given the proximity of the brachial artery to the elbow joint when compared to popliteal artery injuries after knee joint dislocations, which are up to 16% (5).…”
