Ultrasound-Guided Hydrodissection of the Thoracodorsal Nerve and Axillary Nerve in a Gymnast With Shoulder Pain Associated With Superior Labral Anterior-Posterior Lesions: A Case Report
Toru Omodani
Abstract:A 20-year-old male national-level gymnast presented with left shoulder pain attributed to a superior labral anterior-posterior (SLAP) lesion. Physical examination revealed pain in the anterosuperior area at maximum shoulder elevation, with a positive combined abduction test and horizontal flexion test indicating a restriction in glenohumeral joint motion. Rather than directly addressing the SLAP lesion, ultrasoundguided hydrodissections of the thoracodorsal and axillary nerves were performed, leading to immedi… Show more
