title: Intraarticular osteoid osteoma of the elbow.
abstract: The case of a man who developed osteoid osteoma of the elbow is presented. Intraarticular osteoid osteoma of the elbow is a rare lesion presenting both diagnostic and therapeutic problems. The radiologic features of intraarticular osteoid osteoma include osteosclerosis (usually a dominant feature at initial imaging and typically enveloping the nidus), joint effusion and periosteal reaction that can involve the bone in which the osteoid osteoma arises and the adjacent bones. Awareness of these features facilitates correct diagnosis, thereby enabling timely and appropriate treatment.
