Abstract
We present a case of a patient with an incidental finding of an isolated radial head osteochondroma. This progressively enlarged to become symptomatic causing gradual subluxation of the radio-capitellar joint. Marginal excision and an annular ligament reconstruction was performed using a forearm fascia graft. The patient made a full recovery with symptom resolution and preservation of range of movement. He successfully returned to physical activity by the 3-month mark.
