Study: UCL reconstruction surgery likely to put major league pitchers back on the field
Erickson B. Am J Sports Med.2014;doi:10.1177/0363546513510890.
Major League Baseball pitchers who undergo ulnar collateral ligament reconstruction have a strong likelihood of resuming their professional baseball careers after surgery, according to results of a recently published study.
“When compared with demographic-matched controls, patients who underwent [ulnar collateral ligament] UCL reconstruction had better results in multiple performance measures,” Brandon J. Erickson, MD, and colleagues stated in the study. “Reconstruction of the UCL allows for a predictable and successful return to the [Major League Baseball] MLB.”
The study analyzed 179 MLB pitchers who underwent UCL reconstruction. Overall, 174 (97.2%) resumed pitching in professional organized baseball and 148 (83%) returned to the MLB level. Mean time to return to MLB was 20.5 months and the average career after surgery was 3.9 years, however, 56 pitchers were still pitching at the start of the 2013 MLB season.
Pitchers had fewer losses, lower earned run average, losing percentage, hits per inning and fewer walks, hits and home runs allowed after UCL reconstruction than before surgery.
“There is a high rate of [return to pitching] RTP in professional baseball after UCL reconstruction,” Erickson and colleagues concluded. “Performance declined before surgery and improved after surgery.” -by Christian Ingram

Guyon's Canal and Carpal Tunnel Release
Guyon's Canal and Carpal Tunnel Release
Standard Version
The ulnar nerve is decompressed in the wrist through Guyon's canal and in the hand, specifically the deep motor branch of ulnar nerve. The deep motor branch of ulnar nerve is released by dividing the tendonious arch of the hypothenar muscles. In addition, a carpal tunnel release is performed by transecting the transverse carpal ligament.

Suns' Leandro Barbosa fractures hand in loss to Clippers
http://www.sportsinjuryalert.com/2014/03/suns-leandro-barbosa-fractures-hand-in.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter#.Uxcvdfl5M1A
The Phoenix Suns lost to the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday by the score of 104-96. The loss snapped a modest two-game winning streak and dropped the Sunds to 35-25, third in the Pacific Division. Suns backup guard Leandro Barbosa injured his hand early in the game. He finished with two points and two rebounds in 11 minutes.
Rotoworld.com reported that Barbosa suffered a left hand fracture, according to the Suns broadcast. X-rays confirmed the injury and it's possible that Barbosa could be dealing with a metacarpal fracture, which has been commonplace this season around the league.
With Barbosa likely to miss a month, so Ish Smith will get significantly more playing time, along with possibly Archie Goodwin and Dionte Christmas. The injury could also mean even less rest for starters Goran Dragic and Gerald Green, who scored 14 and 17, respectively, in the loss to the Clippers.
Barbosa is in his 11th NBA season. The veteran started his career with the Suns in 2003-2004 and played with them until 2010-2011. He then played for the Raptors, Pacers and Celtics before returning to the Suns this season. In 19 games this season, Barbosa is averaging 7.8 points in 18.8 minutes per game. Barbosa has a career scoring average of 11.9 points in 648 games.
