- W3041760265 abstract "Injuries of the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) are a common pathology and have been well documented for overhead athletes. However, little research has focused on the UCL in competitive golfers, though medial elbow injuries are commonly reported. Ultrasound imaging is becoming a common diagnostic tool to diagnose UCL pathology. In addition, USI protocols have been able to reliably identify the width of the UCL at the mid substance and apex of the trochlea. PURPOSE: The purpose of this pilot study was to examine if differences in UCL width at the mid substance and apex of trochlea existed between the trailing and lead arm of asymptomatic golfers. METHODS: Seven asymptomatic NCAA Division I collegiate female golfers (age 19.4 ± 1.4 yrs) participated in this study. Ultrasound images were obtained of the UCL on the participant’s trailing and lead arms using a GE LOGIQ e ultrasound unit. Participants were placed supine with elbow position at 30 degrees, with a wedge placed underneath the humerus creating a gravity induced valgus force on the UCL. Ultrasound imaging measurements to evaluate the UCL at two points were performed from the apex of the trochlea to the apex of the ulna. A paired t-test was performed to evaluate differences in UCL width measurements. RESULTS: The mean width of the UCL at mid-substance was .297cm (SD .047) in the trailing arm (mean width .297cm, SD .047) and . 234cm (SD .033) in the lead arm. The mean width at the apex of the trochlea was .129cm (SD .022) and .114cm (SD .016), respectively. There was a significant difference between the UCL measurements at the mid-substance between the leading and the trailing arm (mean difference .062 cm, t =5.680-, p= .036), but the difference at the trochlea was not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this pilot study indicate that the trailing arm’s UCL has a larger width when comparing trailing arm with leading arm, potentially due to the increased valgus forces on the trailing elbow versus the leading elbow. These changes may be associated with structural adaptions or pathologies related to this increased load. However, it was beyond the scope of this study to identify the potential sources of the differences in width of the UCL at the mid-substance. Further research is thus recommended using larger sample size, extended study period and symptomatic populations." @default.
