Abstract
Eighteen gymnasts were interviewed and examined radiographically for a cortical irregularity of the proximal humerus simulating malignancy. Fifty percent of the gymnasts had the lesion which is considered to be a benign reactive lesion secondary to excessive forces at the pectoralis major insertion to the proximal humerus. All patients were asymptomatic. The lesion is probably unique to gymnasts, particularly those involved with strength moves. Verf.-Referat
