    Recurrent elbow dislocations in four patients stemmed from lateral capsule and collateral ligament laxity. Surgical repair of these structures, along with loose body removal, offers excellent symptom relief.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Sports Medicine
    • Anatomy

    Background:

    • Recurrent elbow dislocation is a debilitating condition often linked to ligamentous laxity.
    • Identifying the precise cause of instability is crucial for effective treatment planning.

    Observation:

    • Four patients presented with recurrent elbow dislocations attributed to lateral capsuloligamentous laxity.
    • Intra-articular lesions, such as loose bodies, were frequently observed concurrently.

    Findings:

    • Elbow arthrotomy for loose body removal and lateral capsuloligamentous structure repair demonstrated excellent prognostic outcomes.
    • Conservative management or less invasive techniques were not detailed in this specific observation.

    Implications:

    • Surgical repair of the lateral capsuloligamentous complex is a viable and effective treatment for recurrent elbow dislocations.
    • Minimally invasive arthroscopic techniques may offer a favorable alternative to more complex reconstructive procedures.
