Abstract:
Elbow instability may occur secondary to soft tissue or bony injuries. Predictable patterns of instability do occur. Identification of disrupted osseous or ligamentous constraints allows for an algorithmic and predictable treatment plan. Maintaining a high index of suspicion allows early recognition and treatment of elbow instability. Treatment based on recognized principles is the key to preventing recurrent instability and late arthrosis while maintaining functional elbow motion.
