accident
Findings
•
Subscapularis tendon is avulsed with bone
from the lesser tuberosity
•
Humeral avulsion of the anterior band of the
glenohumeral ligament (HAGL)
•
Middle glenohumeral ligament and possibly the
superior glenohumral ligament may be avulsed
as well
•
Possible reverse Hill-Sachs lesion
Subscap Rupture and HAGL (BHAGL)
•
Rupture of the subscapularis tendon uncommon but can be seen
in younger patients injured by forced external rotation or extension
of a partially abducted arm
•
Tears occur near insertion on the lesser tub. May occur at sup
margin, where tendon may be weakened by degeneration
•
Avulsion fracture of the lesser tuberosity may occur, and is
displaced medially and inferiorly
•
Subscapularis avulsions are also associated with injury to the
anterior capsule and glenohumeral ligaments (HAGL)
•
When the AIGHL avulses a fragment of bone from the humerus,
the lesion is known as a bony HAGL, or BHAGL
•
? With MGHL and SGHL torn = Super BHAGL

the dorsum of hand

of hand
Findings
•
Bone prominence on the dorsum of the
hand between the trapezoid, capitate, and
bases of the 2nd and 3rd metacarpals
•
Associated with base of 3rd metacarpal, but
no marrow continuity with it
•
Sclerosis and cystic change at junction with
3rd metacarpal base
Carpal Boss
•
Bone protuberance on dorsum of the hand
•
Degenerative osteophyte or os styloideum
•
Located between trapezoid, capitate, and
base of 2nd and 3rd metacarpals
•
Most often fused to a metacarpal base, but
rarely (2%) can be completely isolated
•
Symptoms
caused
by
degeneration,
formation of ganglion or bursa, or snapping of
an extensor tendon moving over it
Carpal Boss
•
Can be demonstrated on lateral radiograph
with hand flexed and supinated 30-40
degrees; best seen with mild ulnar deviation
•
Alternatively can image with CT or MR
•
MR can demonstrate marrow edema in the
carpal boss and surrounding soft tissue
changes

Findings
•
Partial thickness tear of the internal
oblique muscle belly proximally, with
surrounding edema and hematoma
•
Fluid tracking between internal and
external obliques
•
Feathery pattern of edema at the more
distal aspect of the internal oblique
Side Strain
•
Uncommon sporting injury presenting with pain and
tenderness over anterolateral and posterolateral lower
ribcage
•
Associated with cricket, golf, and ice hockey – eccentric
contraction of trunk muscles
•
Partial or complete tear of lateral abdominal wall
musculature (internal oblique > external oblique >
transversus abdominis)
•
May also see avulsion at the muscular origins from the
lower ribs
•
Recovery takes 6-10 weeks. Full recovery is the norm
