Title: Common Shoulder Problems in Overhead Sports:  An Interactive, Round Table, Case-Based, Problem-Solving Session         

Course Description:

This ICL round table will be an interactive session, which is case based and dealing with 3-4 very common problems seen with overhead sporting activities. Monitors will be placed at 10 tables and individual cases presented. A faculty member will be at each table leading group discussions about the case and then discussion with all tables will take place after faculty reports what was done. Faculty members will rotate tables after each case. An audience response system will be used at each table to facilitate discussion.

Topics:        

• 21-year-old collegiate baseball pitcher with a Type II SLAP tear.                                   
• 18-year-old male defensive back with glenohumeral dislocation in first game of season                       
• 42-year-old female active cross-fitter with PASTA recalcitrant to non-op management
• 23-year-old professional baseball pitcher with posterior shoulder pain and internal rotation deficit.

Learning Objectives:

• The participant will learn the scope of treating SLAP lesions from non-operative treatments to surgical options and techniques in the baseball athlete.
• The participant will learn the scope of both non-operative and surgical treatments of the challenging, athletic, glenohumeral instability patient with timeline decision considerations.
• The participant will learn the scope of treatment options for partial articular sided rotator cuff tears and the literature and personal experiences which support the different treatment options.
• The participant will learn the scope of treating the baseball athlete with internal rotation deficit from non-operative treatments to surgical options and techniques.
