Abstract

We treated 10 cases of tuberculosis of the elbow with a 9-month antitubercular drug regimen, and surgery when indicated. The diagnosis was confirmed in 8 cases by histopathological examination and 2 cases were treated on clinical radiographic grounds. The follow-up ranged from 1 year to 3 years. The results were excellent in synovial and extraarticular lesions. Only in cases with minimal involvement of articular cartilage was a good range of movement achieved.
