Abstract

Here, we describe the first case of intra-articular osteoid osteoma of the capitulum, which is presented as elbow pain, extension lack, and sensation of click in joint flexion. Surgical treatment either arthroscopic or open is more in use in this location of the tumor than cortical osteoid osteoma.

Keywords: capitulum; intra‐articular; osteoid osteoma.
