There is minimal difference in strength values between dominant and nondominant arms of intercollegiate baseball pitchers, with the exception of significantly greater internal rotation peak torque at 0.2 s at 450 degrees.s-1 in the dominant arm. Dominant arm, as well as nondominant arm, ER/IR ratios remain consistent throughout the velocity spectrum. A valid test speed for intercollegiate baseball pitchers appears to be 450 degrees.s-1 when tested before the start of throwing from the pitcher's mound.

Popliteal cysts are typically secondary to an intra-articular pathology in adults but may occur as primary lesions unrelated to knee injury. Careful examination of any mass forming on the posterior aspect of the knee is needed to differentiate benign from malignant conditions. Asymptomatic cysts are often treated conservatively, whereas surgical intervention is recommended for troublesome cysts and for those related to intra-articular derangements. Surgical intervention focused on amelioration of intra-articular derangements and the communication between the knee and the popliteal cyst results in cyst recurrence of less than 5%. A report of a recurrent popliteal cyst, in spite of aggressive surgical intervention, is presented.
