AbstractValgus instability of the elbow in athletes is uncommon among athletes in general, but has a higher incidence in individuals who throw repetitively. When valgus overload injury results in disabling symptoms for the athlete, surgical reconstruction of the anterior band of the ulnar collateral ligament may be indicated. This procedure has been successful in getting athletes back to premorbid levels of competition. The authors provide a comprehensive review of valgus instability of the elbow and offer their preferred method of treatment.
