Abstract

In this article, we discuss our review of 284 shoulder injuries that were seen and treated arthroscopically during a five-year period. All of the injuries were related to the athletes' particular sport. We describe the biomechanical basis for these injuries and review the data gathered on the forces involved in the act of throwing.
