Q 
Valgus etension overload syndrom CEO
cause
pain
work up
tx
* in kids?
A

excessive/ repetitive valgus extension force - baseball pitches
post/medial elbow pain- VEO test
xray- osteophyte or loose bodies
tx- remove above or fix pitching
Little leaguer’s elbow- traction apophysitis (inflamation of tendon) of medial epicondyle growth plates leading to osteochondritits dissecan of capitellum (poor blood supply leading to aseptic necrosis)

21
Q

Elbow dislocation

A

most common in children
usually posterior
xray/ exam
reduce/ splint

22
Q

Nursemaid elbow

A

Radial head sublux out of annular ligament
upward yank on child’s hand
xray, exam
reduce- hyper protonate or supination with flexed arm

23
Q

Ulnar collateral ligament strain

A 
AKA medial collateral ligament
excessive valgus force to anterior bundle of UCL
medial elbow pain / lax
xray
tx RICE, PT, Tommy John surgery
24
Q

Radial collateral ligament strain

A 
AKA lateral collateral ligament
excessive varus force to RCL
lateral elbow pain
xray
tx RICE, PT, surgery
25
Q

olecranon bursitis

A

inflamation of olecranon bursa
friction, repetitive force, assoc with RA, gout
exam, aspirate and cx if infected
tx rice elbow pad, aspiration

26
Q

Lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow)

A

overuse of wrist/finger extensors (usually ECRB)
+ cozen and mill’s test
tx rice, PT, splint, steroid, tenotomy, regenerative
increase grip size, decrease string tension <55lbs, play in slow court (clay) correct technique

27
Q

Medial epicondylitis (golfer’s elbow)

A

flexor tendon inflamation
overuse, valgus stress to common flexor tendon
golfers and pitchers
pain at common flexor tendon at medial epidondyle, pain with wrist flexion or extension while palpating tendon
RICE splint, PT, correct technique

28
Q

Distal Biceps tendonitis tear

A

overload/use inflammation or tear at tendon insertion at radial tuberosity
pain at antecubital fossa, pain with biceps load
if rupture, sudden swelling and bruising at ant elbow
xray to r/o avulsion
Hook test: finger at distal tendon attempt at hooking it out
tx rice, pt, technique, surgery

29
Q

triceps tendonitis/tear

overuse
avulsion with sudden eccentric force can occur
xray
RIE, PT, surgery
