• RF
– There is sclerosis of the trochlear notches and an indistinct appearance
of the medial coronoid processes noted in both elbows.

remodeled.

bilaterally and the anconeal process on the left.

There is extensive arthritic change in the elbow.
An ununited anconeal process is present.
Marked humeroulnar subluxation is evident.
A faint flattening of lucency of the medial humeral condyle is noted and is
considered evidence of osteochondrosis.
– The medial coronoid process has an indistinct appearance in the lateral view and
osteophyte formation is present on its margins in the CC view.
– Diffuse medullary sclerosis is visible in the distal humerus and in the proximal
ulna distal to the trochlear notch.

medial coronoid process.
• RD

condyles.
