“…Eine frühzeitige Bewegungstherapie mit aktiv-assistierten physiotherapeutischen Übungen ab der 2. Woche führt zu besseren funktionellen Ergebnissen als eine Immobilisierung für >2 Wochen, wie Literaturdaten belegen [3,24]. Bedingt durch Kontrakturen und Arthrofibrose sind bei längerfristiger Ruhigstellung bleibende Bewegungseinschränkungen beschrieben [8,21,30].…”

Causes of injury and mechanism. Acute soft tissue injuries of the elbow predominantly occur after joint dislocation or subluxation. It is essential to know the elbow dislocation pattern as well as the primary and secondary elbow constraints in order to correctly estimate the injury severity and joint stability. Diagnosis and therapy. Adequate management of acute soft tissue elbow injuries also depends on systematic physical examination and careful radiographic evaluation. Nonsurgical and surgical treatment options are presented and discussed with special regard to indication and results.

“…There are numerous intrinsic and extrinsic risk factors that contribute to a UCL tear and the potential for surgery. Aside from mircotears over time causing the chronic nature of the injury, 5,6,[8][9][10]12,14,15 the mechanics of the initial injury, biomechanical abnormalities at the glenohumeral joint and elbow 12,15,16 and throwing errors 17 all commonly lead to the failure of the UCL. Determining why the UCL failed and the surgical techniques chosen can help in the understanding the extensive rehabilitation process and the likeliness of the athlete returning to throwing.…”

“…This is due to an excessive valgus force, which stresses the medial side of the elbow during these two phases of throwing. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] The nature of the injury is classified as a chronic injury because mircotears occur along the UCL during the throwing motion. [8][9][10]12,14,15 However, there is a chance for an acute tear while throwing.…”

There is currently a lack of information on ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) injuries for athletic trainers. Most of the literature addressed the surgical options in detail and depending on the study, information for rehabilitation may be limited or not even included. Further, there are a limited number of studies that compare the different surgical techniques to each other as well. Objective: To provide a comparison of the Jobe technique to the Docking technique, in regard to surgery, success rates, and rehabilitation process.

Bouldering is a new trend sport which has become popular in recent years. From April 2011 to June 2012 a total of 5 patients with elbow dislocations from bouldering were admitted to our level 1 trauma center. The injuries varied from simple elbow dislocations to complex fracture dislocations. Elbow dislocations occurred during falling backwards when patients tried to protect themselves by retroversion of both arms. In all cases the falling height was less than 4 meters. The bouldering injury pattern, the diagnostic and therapeutic management as well as the rehabilitation program are described in detail in this article. To the best of our knowledge this is the first report on the special danger of bouldering for complex elbow injuries.
