Abstract

Objectives: The medial ulnar collateral ligament (UCL), the radiocapitellar joint, and the posteromedial olecranon are the constraints of the elbow that are often injured during the late cocking and early acceleration phases of throwing. Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the capitellum usually occur in adolescents participating in baseball due to repetitive compression force and excessive valgus torque within the radiocapitellar joint. Currently, there is conflicting literature on how location and size of osteochondral defects effect elbow valgus angulation. The purpose of this study was to q
