    LATERAL EPICONDYLITIS (TENNIS ELBOW)

    By :Ida Yuanita, MD

    Pathophysiology
    Inflammation at the muscular origin of the Extensor Carpi Radialis Brevis (ECRB) microtears of the tendon subsequent fibrosis tissue failure Less commonly the attachment of the Extensor Carpi Radialis Longus (ECRL), Extensor Digitorum Communis (EDC), or Extensor Carpi Ulnaris (ECU) are involved
    Rene Calliet, Soft Tissue Pain and Disability, 2nd ed

    Sex
    men and women with equal frequency

    Age
    most often occurs between 3rd and 5th decades of life

    Clinical
    History The patient usually describes a gradual onset of lateral elbow pain, which is characterized as follows: The aching pain generally increases with activity Symptoms are typically unilateral

    Physical
    Most commonly, the examination reveals localized tenderness to palpation just distal and anterior to the lateral epicondyle. Other symptoms include the following: Pain increases with resisted wrist extension, especially with the elbow in extension

    The patient may have a weakened grip on the affected side Elbow range of motion (ROM) is typically normal

    Causes
    Lateral epicondylitis is an overuse syndrome generally caused by repetitive use of the wrist extensors or sustained power gripping

    Workup Laboratory Studies Not needed Imaging Studies usually are not necessary, but tendinopathies can be visualized with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and with ultrasonography

    Other Tests Electrodiagnostic studies may help to determine whether other causes of lateral elbow pain, such as cervical radiculopathy or posterior interosseous nerve palsy, are present

    Treatment

    Rehabilitation Program Physical Therapy Acute stage goal of treatment to reduce pain and inflammation. A wrist splint used during activities can be helpful, because it places the extensor muscles in a position of rest and prevents maximal muscle contraction

    Sub acute stage emphasize the restoration of function of the involved muscle group. Flexibility, strength, and endurance of the wrist extensor muscle group. ROM for wrist flexion/extension and pronation/supination Strength and grip training

    Chronic stage scapular stabilization should be addressed to prevent overuse of the wrist extensors during activities. Sports-specific training should also be included in the rehabilitation program, if appropriate.

    Occupational Therapy Job and recreational tools and/or equipment may need to be modified, especially if repetitive gripping is required
    Medical Treatment NSAIDs, steroid injection

    Surgical Intervention For cases of refractory lateral epicondylitis, surgical resection of the lateral extensor aponeurosis might be considered.
