Valgus Extension Overload (Pitcher's Elbow) - Orthobullets
5 天之前 · Valgus Extension Overload, also known as Pitcher's elbow, is a condition characterized by posteromedial elbow pain related to repetitive microtrauma in throwing athletes. Diagnosis is made clinically with posteromedial elbow pain that worsens with elbow extension, and confirmed with radiographs or advanced imaging showing osteophyte formation ...
Elbow Injuries in the Throwing Athlete - OrthoInfo - AAOS
Valgus Extension Overload . During the throwing motion, the olecranon and humerus bones are twisted and forced against each other. Over time, this can lead to valgus extension overload (VEO), a condition in which the protective cartilage on the olecranon is worn away and abnormal overgrowth of bone called bone spurs, or osteophytes, develop.
Flexor pronator muscles' contribution to elbow joint valgus …
The aim of this ultrasonography (US)-based study 14, 20 was to assess differences of the medial elbow joint space at rest, under valgus stress, and under valgus stress with flexor-pronator muscle (flexor carpi ulnaris [FCU], FDS, FDP, and PT) contraction in high school baseball pitchers with and without elbow symptoms.
Correlation of throwing mechanics with elbow valgus load in …
Conclusion: Valgus torque at the elbow during baseball pitching is associated with 6 biomechanical variables of sequential body motion. A condition of late trunk rotation, reduced shoulder external rotation, and increased elbow flexion appeared to …
Repetitive throwing, such as in baseball pitching, applies massive stress on the elbow. This can often lead to a predict-able constellation of elbow injuries, such as valgus extension overload syndrome (VEO). The following review of VEO provides an understanding of relevant anatomy, explanation of pathomechanics,
Valgus elbow stress leads to medial tension and lateral compression injuries in baseball pitchers of all ages. This study was undertaken to investigate the relation-ship between elbow stress in professional baseball pitchers and the kinematic parameters of pitching me-chanics. This was done in an attempt to understand
Factors that Increase Elbow Stress in the Throwing Athlete: a ...
Werner et al. evaluated the relationship between throwing mechanics and elbow valgus torque in professional baseball pitchers. In a review of high-speed video data from 40 professional pitchers, they performed a multiple linear regression analysis to relate elbow valgus stresses to the kinematic parameters of the pitching mechanics.
Relationship between throwing mechanics and elbow valgus in ...
Valgus elbow stress leads to medial tension and lateral compression injuries in baseball pitchers of all ages. This study was undertaken to investigate the relationship between elbow stress in professional baseball pitchers and the kinematic parameters of pitching mechanics.
Computing muscle, ligament, and osseous contributions to the elbow …
Baseball pitching imposes a dangerous valgus load on the elbow that puts the joint at severe risk for injury. The goal of this study was to develop a musculoskeletal modeling approach to enable evaluation of muscle-tendon contributions to mitigating elbow injury risk in pitching.
