“…Kim et al describe a case similar to our second case of impingement on the distal biceps tendon by a solitary osteochondroma that resulted in distal biceps rupture with elbow flexion and supination weakness. 3 In contrast to the present case in which snapping was noted on clinical exam, they describe an insidious onset of pain over a four-month period preceding presentation to the orthopedic clinic. While they considered that the osteochondroma may have been an incidental finding coincidental to the distal biceps rupture, based on their surgical finding that the osteochondroma occupied the radioulnar space completely during forearm pronation, they hypothesized that mechanical impingement had led to attritional rupture.…”

“…Our case report highlighted a diagnostic pathway which ultimately led to surgery following a trial of conservative treatment. To our knowledge there is only one other case report of an osteochondroma at the proximal radius with a secondary bicipital bursitis [ 7 ].…”

“…They are the most frequent benign bone tumour that occur in metaphyseal regions of long bones [ 6 ]. The pathology consists of an atypical growth of cartilaginous tissue of the physis [ 4 , 5 , 7 ]. They are composed of cortical and medullary bone with overlying hyaline cartilage cap which also exhibits continuity with underlying bone cortex and medulla.…”

“…Solitary types tend to be asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally. Symptomatic lesions normally occur in young patients, with up to 80% diagnosed prior to the age of 20, commonly found in the femur, tibia, humerus, pelvis [ 7 , 9 ], and rarely the elbow. Clinically, they may present with pain, swelling, restricted range of motion, neuropathy, vascular compromise, and abnormal cosmesis [ 5 ].…”

Antecubital Fossa Solitary Osteochondroma with Associated Bicipitoradial Bursitis

Antecubital fossa lesions are uncommon conditions that present to the orthopaedic clinic. Furthermore, the radius bone is an uncommonly reported location for an osteochondroma, especially when presenting with a concurrent reactive bicipitoradial bursitis. Osteochondromas are a type of developmental lesion rather than a true neoplasm. They constitute up to 15% of all bone tumours and up to 50% of benign bone tumours. They may occur as solitary or multiple lesions. Multiple lesions are usually associated with a syndrome known as hereditary multiple exostoses (HME). Malignant transformation is known to occur but is rare. Bicipitoradial bursitis is a condition which can occur as primary or secondary (reactive) pathology. In our case, the radius bone osteochondroma caused reactive bicipitoradial bursitis. The differential diagnosis of such antecubital fossa masses is vast but may be narrowed down through a targeted history, stepwise radiological investigations, and histological confirmation. Our aim is to ensure that orthopaedic clinicians keep a wide differential in mind when dealing with antecubital fossa mass lesions.
