Imaging Injuries in Throwing Sports Beyond the Typical Shoulder and Elbow Pathologies.
Publication/Presentation Date
9-1-2016
Abstract
This review article describes injuries that occur in the upper extremities of athletes less commonly than those typically discussed with shoulders and elbows. A survey of osseous, musculotendinous, ligamentous, and neurovascular injuries is presented along with associated imaging findings and standard treatment options. This article does not focus on the classic throwing injuries of the shoulder or elbow; the goal is to survey injuries in throwing sports that involve structures away from the glenohumeral, acromioclavicular, or elbow joints. The goal of this article is to introduce readers to these less common injuries, describe their clinical presentations, and characterize their typical imaging appearances.
