Prominent synovial plicae in radiocapitellar joints as a potential cause of lateral elbow pain: clinico-radiologic correlation

Thickened synovial plicae in the radiocapitellar joint have been reported as a cause of lateral elbow pain. However, few reports regarding diagnosis based on detailed physical examination and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings are available. The aims of this study were to characterize the clinical manifestations of this syndrome and to investigate the clinical outcomes of arthroscopic surgery.
