Lateral collateral ulnar ligament reconstruction techniques in posterolateral rotatory instability of the elbow: A systematic review

Injury Nov 11, 2020

De Giorgi S, Vicenti G, Bizzoca D, et al. - A systematic review was performed to evaluate the clinical outcome and the complication rates of the surgical techniques currently applied in the management of posterolateral rotatory elbow instability. Researchers carried out to search OVID-MEDLINE, SCOPUS, and PubMed between January 2009 and February 2019 to distinguish relevant studies. They included three studies, published between 2012 and 2015 involving a total of 33 patients undergoing a Jobe technique reconstruction and 8 patients undergoing a Docking technique. This study’s findings demonstrate that both Jobe and Docking techniques are safe and effective in the treatment of posterolateral elbow instability. Nevertheless, future trials with a larger sample size and a longer follow-up interval are required to draw stronger conclusions on the effectiveness of the different LUCL surgical reconstruction techniques.
