What is the surgery often referred to that repairs the UCL? It is particularly common among high school, collegiate, and professional pitchers.

"Tommy John procedure"

The shoulder joint is frequently injured due to which three things?

1. anatomical design (shallowness of glenoid fossa and largeness of head of humerus) 2. lack of stability from ligaments 3. lack of strength and endurance in the muscles, which are essential in providing dynamic stability to the joint

While the exact number of degrees in one segment compared to another may vary within and between individuals, the generally accepted ratio is ____ to _____; that is, for every _____ degrees of glenohumeral motion, there is ____ degree of scapula motion.

2, 1, 2, 1

Without the accompanying movement of the scapula, we can only raise our humerus to around ______ to _______ degrees of total shoulder abduction and flexion.

90, 120

In recent years the phenomenon of ____________ has received attention. This represents a difference in internal rotation range of motion between an individual's throwing and nonthrowing shoulders. Studies have shown that overhead athletes who had this of greater than 20% had a higher risk of injury than those who did not. Appropriate stretching exercises may be used to regain the amount of internal rotation necessary to improve performance and reduce the likelihood of injury.

GIRD (glenohumeral internal rotation deficit)

The __________ is particularly crucial to those high-velocity sporting activities, such as baseball pitching, that require optimal stability of the medial elbow. Even moderate injury to this structure can seriously impact an athlete's ability to throw at the highest levels. Compromise of this structure often requires surgery using a tendon graft such as the palmaris longus tendon to reconstruct this ligament.

UCL

annular

________________ glenohumeral subluxations and dislocations are quite common with physical activity.

dynamically

The shoulder joint, specifically known as the glenohumeral joint, is a multiaxial ball-and-socket joint classified as ______________________.

humerus

Rotator cuff ___________________ _________________ occurs when the tendons of these muscles, particularly the supraspinatus and infraspinatus, become irritated and inflamed as they pass through the subacromial space between the acromion process of the scapula and the head of the humerus.

shoulder

Determining the exact range of each movement for the glenohumeral joint is difficult because of the accompanying ______________ ___________________ movement.

The scapulothoracic joint is not a true _________________ joint, due to its not having regular _____________ features and to the fact that its movement is totally dependent on the sternoclavicular and acromioclavicular joints.

synovial, synovial

Quite often when these types of activities are conducted with poor technique, muscle fatigue, or inadequate warm-up and conditioning, the rotator cuff muscle group--particularly the supraspinatus--fails to dynamically stabilize the humeral head in the glenoid cavity, leading to further rotator cuff problems such as _______________ and rotator cuff _________________ within the subacromial space.
