The elbow should be flexed at 90°. The examiner should stand beside the patient with distal hand holding the patient's wrist and hand. The examiner's proximal hand is to be placed over the patient's humeral head. [2] [1] The examiner applies a posterior force to the humeral head and externally rotates the patients humerus.
Biceps massage for Cunningham Technique. Cunningham shoulder reduction was originally published in 2003 [1] and is an anatomically based method of shoulder reduction that utilizes positioning (analgesic position), voluntary scapular retraction, and bicipital massage.
The posterior fat pad is normally pressed in the olecranon fossa by the triceps tendon, and hence invisible on lateral radiograph of the elbow. [3] When there is a fracture of the distal humerus, or other pathology involving the elbow joint, inflammation develops around the synovial membrane forcing the fat pad out of its normal physiologic resting place.
The patient needs to be in a seated position with the elbow flexed to 90°, forearm pronated (palm facing the ground), and the arm stabilized against the thorax. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] The examiner places the stabilizing hand on the proximal portion of the humerus near the bicipital groove, and the resistance hand on the distal forearm and wrist.
Because dislocations make the knee unstable, 15% of patellas will re-dislocate. [27] Patellar dislocations often occur when the knee is in full extension and sustains a trauma from the lateral to medial side. [28] Elbow: Posterior dislocation, 90% of all elbow dislocations [29] Wrist: Lunate and Perilunate dislocation most common [30]
The Latarjet procedure involves the removal and transfer of a section of the coracoid process and its attached muscles to the front of the glenoid. This placement of the coracoid acts as a bone block which, combined with the transferred muscles acting as a strut, prevents further dislocation of the joint. [3]

Pipkin: posterior dislocation of hip with avulsion fracture of fragment of femoral head by the ligamentum teres: impact to the knee with the hip flexed (dashboard injury)
SLAP is an acronym for "Superior Labrum Anterior and Posterior". [1] SLAP lesions are commonly seen in overhead throwing athletes but middle-aged labor workers can also be affected, and they can be caused by chronic overuse or an acute stretch injury of the shoulder.
