A Safer Alternative Option for UCL Ligament Injuries

Ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) injuries are especially common among athletes, particularly baseball pitchers, due to the repetitive stress placed on the elbow. A frequently recommended treatment is UCL reconstruction surgery, often referred to as Tommy John Surgery. This procedure involves drilling into the bones of the elbow and attaching a tendon graft taken from another part of the body. Recovery can take an entire season, and not all athletes return to previous performance levels.

At Mountain View Headache and Spine Institute in Phoenix, AZ, physicians in the licensed Regenexx network offer a non-surgical alternative. These outpatient procedures use Regenexx injectates, which consist of customized concentrations of your own biologic materials. Using advanced imaging for guidance, the injectate is placed directly into the areas of tissue damage within the elbow.

This approach is designed to support the body’s natural healing response while preserving the elbow’s structure. Compared to surgery, downtime is often significantly shorter and may involve little or no need for opioid medications or extended time away from daily activities.
