Elbow
Slide 2-

Lateral Epicondylitis (tennis elbow) Pathology 30 – 50 years old Repetitive micro-trauma Chronic tear in the origin of the extensor carpi radialis brevis
Slide 3-

Lateral Epicondylitis (tennis elbow) Mechanism of Injury Overuse syndrome caused by repeated forceful wrist and finger movements Tennis players Prolonged and rapid activities
Slide 4-

Lateral Epicondylitis (tennis elbow) Clinical Signs and Symptoms Increased pain around lateral epicondyle Tenderness in palpation CET Tests AROM; PROM Resisted tests Lidocaine

Medial Epicondylitis (golfer’s elbow) Pathology 30 - 50 years old Repetitive micro trauma to common flexor tendon
Slide 9-

Medial Epicondylitis (golfer’s elbow) Mechanisms of injury Throwing a baseball Racquetball or tennis Swimming backstroke Hitting a golf ball
Slide 10-

Medial Epicondylitis (golfer’s elbow) Clinical signs and symptoms Increased pain over medial epicondyle Tenderness on palpation CFT Tests AROM; PROM Resisted tests Lidocaine

Ulnar Neuritis Pathology Superficial position at the elbow Excessive pressure in this area Second most common entrapment neuropathy in the upper extremity

Slide 14-

Ulnar Neuritis Mechanism of injury Compression of the ulnar nerve: cubital tunnel (epicondyle, olecranon, MCL, arch of arcuate ligament and of 2 heads of FCU Elbow flexion tightens arch Repeated rapid activities such as throwing and prolonged flexion may traction or compress nerve Nerve can sublux out of tunnel
Slide 15-

Ulnar Neuritis Clinical signs and symptoms Sensory changes in classic ulnar distribution: little finger and ulnar side of ring finger Positive elbow flexion test Positive Tinel’s test Weakness of grip Deterioration of 2 point discrimination Adductor Pollicus neuro-weakness Neuro-weakness interossei (Wartenburg)
Slide 16-

Ulnar Neuritis Common treatments Non-operative: rest is imperative; NSAIDS; determination of cause and elimination of it Surgical intervention: decompression or transposition
Slide 17-

Medial Overload Syndrome in Throwers Pathology Lateral joint line- compressive forces Shear forces posteriorly in olecranon fossa Tensile forces along medial joint line

Slide 20-

Medial Overload Syndrome in Throwers Clinical signs and symptoms Persistent medial elbow soreness Arm fatigue is the 1st indicator of impending injury Medial tenderness Elbow pain
Slide 21-

Medial Overload Syndrome in Throwers: Treatment Pre throwing stretches Adequate gentle warm up with gradual increase to higher velocity throws Post throwing stretching ICE after throwing Surgical Intervention
Slide 22-

Anterior Interosseus Nerve Syndrome (Median Nerve) Pathology Areas of possible compression Between the head of the pronator teres The proximal tendon of flexor digitorum superficialis
Slide 23-

Slide 24-

Anterior Interosseus Nerve Syndrome Mechanism for Injury Repetitive elbow flexion with forearm pronated Tendinitis of deep head of pronator secondary to heavy lifting Fractures or D/C of ulna or radius Clinical Signs and Symptoms Pain No sensory complaints or losses Significant muscular weakness: loss of tip to tip pinch
Slide 25-

Radial Tunnel syndrome/Posterior Interosseous Syndrom Pathology Radial nerve compressed: In the proximal radial tunnel anterior to the head of the radius where nerve supplies brachioradialis and ECRL, between the ulnar half of the ECRB and its fascia, and at the distal border of supinator. Often mimics tennis elbow

Slide 27-

Signs and Symptoms Classic S&S of lateral epicondylitis including pain on ROM and resistive testing; resisted supination > wrist ext. Maximum tenderness should be over the supinator muscle; 4 fingers breadth distal to the lateral epicondyle Pain can radiate up and down arm Weak grip Diagnostic local anesthetic block to CET
Slide 28-

WRIST AND HAND
Slide 29-

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Median nerve compression within the carpal tunnel is the most common peripheral nerve entrapment syndrome. Any condition that decreases the cross sectional area of the carpal tunnel or increases the volume of its contents may cause the pathology. EX: lunate dislocation; distal radius fracture, sustained flexion or extension postures, fluid retention, synovitis

Slide 31-

Signs & Symptoms of CTS Pain, paraesthesia, or numbness in the median nerve distribution distal to the wrist Nocturnal paraesthesias common complaint Clumsiness and decreased prehension; tip to tip opposition of tips of thumb and little finger Sustained wrist flexion brings on symptoms
Slide 32-

Slide 33-

Treatment of CTS Eliminate risk factors such as take frequent rest breaks; ergonomic set up analysis and correction; decrease vibration and prolonged pressure, etc Neutral wrist splinting/rest/neural mobilization Check for double crush problem: elbow, shoulder, neck and treat corresponding areas NSAIDS Surgical release: failure of conservative tx or if significant thenar atrophy or sensory loss
