## Abstract This study determined the effect of radial head fracture size and ligament injury on elbow kinematics. Eight cadaveric upper extremities were studied in an in vitro elbow simulator. Testing was performed with ligaments intact, with the medial collateral (MCL) or lateral collateral (LCL)
Irrespective of the exact shape and length of myosin heads, it is shown that radial compressive forces occur in contracting muscle, which tend to bring the myofilaments closer to each other. This is in contradiction with common observation: a muscle that shortens swells laterally. The presence of th
Injuries around the elbow joint in children can be difficult to diagnose on the basis of findings on physical examination and radiographs. We present the case of a 4-year-old girl with a probable subluxation of the radial head, based on the findings on physical examination and radiographs. Radiograp
