Lateral epicondylitis (LE) is a very common and painful condition seen in the daily practice of musculoskeletal physicians. Ultrasound-guided (USG) injections are commonly performed to manage the pain, promote the healing phase, and plan a tailored rehabilitation treatment. In this aspect, several techniques were described to target specific pain generators i the lateral elbow. Likewise, the aim of this manuscript was to extensively review those USG techniques together with the patients' pertinent clinical/sonographic features. The authors believe that this literature summary could also be refined as a practical, ready-to-use guide for planning the USG interventions of the lateral elbow in clinical practice.

Background: Unstable osteochondritis dissecans of the capitellum (OCD-C) is most commonly treated with debridement and marrow stimulation. This treatment has historically been associated with suboptimal return to high-demand upper extremity sports and persistent elbow pain. Fresh osteochondral allograft transplant (OCAlloT) is an alternative treatment that restores subchondral bone and articular cartilage without the donor site morbidity that is associated with autograft harvest.

Posterolateral rotatory instability (PLRI) of the elbow occurs from chronic lateral ulnar collateral ligament (LUCL) injury leading to subluxation of the ulnohumeral joint and radial head. Patients with failed or untreated LUCL injury can go on to have chronic elbow instability and difficulty with activities that require an axial load on the elbow. Free grafts such as semitendinosus, Achilles, or palmaris longus require fixation on both the humerus and ulna, or may not represent the native LUCL kinematics as a native tendon such as anconeus.

The aim of our study was to assess the conformation of the radioulnar joint using transverse plane computed tomography in dogs with medial coronoid disease (MCD).The study included 101 elbow joints with arthroscopically confirmed MCD and 20 sound control elbow joints. To assess the conformation of the radioulnar joint, we determined the ratio for the radial head centre of supination and pronation toward the ulnar joint surface in the transverse computed tomography plane.

Aims: Dislocation arthropathy of the shoulder is an advanced arthritis resulting from recurrent glenohumeral dislocation with or without previous stabilization surgery. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical results of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) in patients with dislocation arthropathy with those with primary osteoarthritis (OA) and glenoid bone loss.
Methods: This was a retrospective matched cohort study including 22 patients with dislocation arthropathy who were treated by one surgeon between 2011 and 2021 and a matched group of 44 patients who were also treated with RTSA, for OA.
