Abstract:Purpose
Anatomical variations of the concave shaped retrocondylar ulnar groove (RUG) can contribute to ulnar nerve instability. However, there are currently limited available standardized data describing the anatomy of the RUG based on radiologic imaging, such as computed tomography (CT). This study aims to provide a comprehensive description and classification of RUG anatomy based on RUG angle measurements.
Methods
400 CT scans of the elbows of adults sho… Show more
