A case of Little Leaguer's shoulder (LLS) in a 12-year-old male is presented. Classically, LLS is an overuse injury affecting adolescent pitchers. The diagnosis is the result of a thorough history, physical examination, and radiographic evaluation. Clinicians unfamiliar with LLS may fail to detect this injury and order a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) study without radiographs. The objective of this case report is to help radiologists become more familiar with the MRI and radiographic findings of LLS.
本文报告一例12岁男性小联盟肩(LLS)病例。典型地,LLS是一种影响青少年投手的过度使用性损伤。诊断是详尽病史、体格检查及影像学评估的结果。不熟悉LLS的临床医生可能无法检测到这种损伤,并且在未进行X线检查的情况下就安排磁共振成像(MRI)检查。本病例报告的目的是帮助放射科医生更熟悉LLS的MRI及X线表现。
