Abstract

[Indexed for MEDLINE] Conflict of interest statement: None declared. 3. Bull Hosp Jt Dis (2013). 2021;79(3):200-204. A History of Eponyms in Traction Apophysitises. Bi AS, Castañeda PG. Traction apophysitises are a well-known entity in the orthopedic world that are generally thought of as conditions of the pediatric population secondary to overuse and repetitive microtrauma. Many have been named for their original descriptors, and therefore the purpose of this review is to highlight the backgrounds of these physicians, pay tribute to those who came before, and standardize the definitions of these oft-used eponyms. Iselin's disease, Little League Elbow, Osgood-Schlatter disease, Sever's disease, and Sinding-Larsen-Johansson disease will be discussed in brief, followed by a historical background presenting the original description of the named author as well as a short biography. A particular focus on imaging findings will be presented, from original roentgenographs to current modalities of both ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging.
