Abstract
We report two cases of osteoid osteoma located in the bicipital tuberosity of the radius. This unusual localization illustrates the clinical polymorphism frequently observed in osteoid osteomas of the elbow and consequently the tendency to late diagnosis. Resistant contraction of the brachial biceps, in forearm pronation, suggests the need for complementary exams, particularly computed tomography. Surgical resection via anterior access can control pain and prevent recurrence.Entities:
