Lateral epicondylitis
Lateral epicondylitis, also known as tennis elbow, is an overuse syndrome of the common extensor tendon and predominantly affects the extensor carpi radialis brevis (ECRB) tendon.
Epidemiology
Lateral epicondylitis occurs with a frequency of 7 to 10 times that of medial epicondylitis. As with ...

Lateral epicondyle fracture (elbow)
Lateral epicondyle fractures of the elbow are rare epicondylar fractures. They are much rarer than medial epicondyle fractures and represent avulsion of the lateral epicondyle. They are usually seen in the setting of other injuries 1-3.
Terminology
These fractures are avulsion fractions of th...
Article
Common extensor tendon injury
Common extensor tendon injuries of the elbow include partial and complete tears or detachment of the common extensor tendon origin of the elbow and are commonly associated with lateral epicondylitis 1-4.
Epidemiology
Common extensor tendon injuries are the most common acute tendon injuries of ...
Article
Common extensor origin of the elbow
The common extensor origin of the elbow classically refers to the common tendon of the following forearm extensor muscles, which form a common footprint at the lateral epicondyle 1,2:
extensor carpi radialis brevis (ECRB)
extensor digitorum communis (EDC)
extensor digiti minimi (EDM)
extenso...

Radial tunnel syndrome
Radial tunnel syndrome is an entity that refers to entrapment (tunnel syndrome) of the radial nerve in the forearm, as it occurs in the supinator syndrome. Some authors believe this is an early form of the posterior interosseous nerve syndrome 5.
Epidemiology
There may be a female predilection...
Article
Lateral collateral ligament complex of the elbow
The lateral collateral ligament complex or radial collateral ligament complex is a major lateral stabilizer of the elbow joint and resists varus stress.
Gross anatomy
The LCL is a Y-shaped ligamentous complex composed of three parts 1,2:
annular ligament
from sigmoid notch to supi...
Article
Anconeus muscle
The anconeus muscle is a small muscle in the posterior compartment of the arm at the lateral aspect of the elbow. Its functional significance is not well understood 5.
It should not be confused with the anconeus epitrochlearis, an accessory muscle that is present in up to one third of people, a...
Article
MRI of the elbow (an approach)
MRI of the elbow is a fairly frequent examination in musculoskeletal radiology practice and not quite as common in general radiological practice. This approach is an example of how to create a radiological report of an elbow MRI with coverage of the most common anatomical sites of possible patho...
Article
Humerus
The humerus (plural: humeri) is a tubular bone of the arm that articulates proximally at the shoulder with the glenoid of the scapula, and distally at the elbow, with the radius and ulna.
Gross anatomy
Osteology
The humerus begins proximally as a rounded head and joins the greater and lesser ...
Article
Radial collateral ligament of the elbow
The radial collateral ligament (RCL), radial collateral ligament proper or lateral collateral ligament of the elbow is a static lateral stabilizer and a part of the lateral collateral ligamentous complex of the elbow.
Gross anatomy
The radial collateral ligament courses through the intertuberc...
Article
Extensor digiti minimi muscle
Extensor digiti minimi (EDM) muscle (also known as extensor digiti quinti proprius) is a muscle of the superficial layer of the posterior compartment of the forearm, and with other extensor muscles arises from a common extensor tendon attached to the lateral epicondyle of the humerus. The EDM re...
Article
Lateral humeral condyle fracture
Lateral humeral condyle fractures also referred to simply as lateral condyle fractures (in the appropriate context), are relatively common elbow fractures that predominantly occur in children. They may be subtle but are hugely important to diagnose in a timely manner because if they are missed, ...
Article
Additional radial wrist extensor muscles
Additional radial wrist extensors are normal anatomical variants and accessory muscles of the forearm and the wrist. The following additional wrist extensors have been described 1-6:
extensor carpi radialis intermedius
extensor carpi radialis accessorius
extensor carpi radialis tertius
Epid...
Article
Extensor digitorum muscle
Extensor digitorum (ED) muscle, also known as extensor digitorum communis (EDC) muscle, is a muscle of the superficial layer of the posterior compartment of the forearm and with other extensor muscles arises from a common tendon attached to the lateral epicondyle of the humerus. It is one of the...
Article
Medial epicondylitis
Medial epicondylitis (plural: medial epicondylitides), also known as golfer's elbow, is an angiofibroblastic tendinosis of the common flexor-pronator tendon group of the elbow.
Epidemiology
Medial epicondylitis is less common than lateral epicondylitis. As with lateral epicondylitis, it typica...
Article
AO/OTA classification of distal humeral fractures
The AO/OTA classification of distal humeral fractures is one of the most frequently used systems for classifying distal humeral fractures.
The AO classification divides distal humeral fractures into three groups, A, B and C with complexity and severity increasing 1.
type A: extraarticular
A...
Article
Extensor carpi radialis longus muscle
Extensor carpis radialis longus (ECRL) muscle is a muscle of the superficial layer in the posterior compartment of the forearm. It passes through the 2nd extensor compartment of the wrist. It is one of the three muscles forming the mobile wad of Henry. It is one of the extrinsic muscles of the h...
Article
Total knee arthroplasty
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA), or total knee replacement (TKR), or tricompartmental knee replacement is an orthopedic procedure whereby the three articular surfaces of the knee (femoral, tibial, and patellar) are replaced by prosthetic components.
TKA is the most common joint arthroplasty perfo...
Article
Posterolateral rotatory instability of the elbow
Posterolateral rotatory instability (PLRI) of the elbow is the most common pattern of elbow instability, most commonly seen following posterior elbow dislocation 1. It is characterized by 2-4:
posterolateral subluxation/dislocation of the radial head relative to the capitellum
posterior displa...

Elbow radiograph (an approach)
Elbow radiographs are common and oftentimes difficult to interpret without a solid systematic search strategy.
Systematic review
Choosing a search strategy and utilizing it consistently is a helpful method to overcome common errors seen in diagnostic radiology. The order in which you interpre...
