Abstract Back to the Diamond — An Update in Baseball Injuries provides an overview of the key concerns for sports medicine professionals involving ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) injuries. The video also discusses the factors and theories surrounding the increase in incidence of UCL tears in baseball players. In addition, the video points out the treatment options and various surgical techniques for this condition. On top of that, UCL reconstruction, often referred to as "Tommy John surgery", is also reviewed from the standpoint of healing, post-operative management, common rehabilitation/return-to-play (RTP) timelines, and common misconceptions. Furthermore, the video presents an in-depth examination of rehabilitation following operative and non-operative UCL procedures, including specific stress tests, strength training, and exercise demonstrations that can be used in the recovery process. The video cites and includes the results of multiple studies to support suggested rehabilitation protocols and recommended RTP timelines. In addition, the video looks at the performance success rates of athletes returning to their sport following UCL procedures.
