Carcinomatous arthritis of the elbow caused by metastatic breast carcinoma
Clinical Rheumatology
|June 1, 1987
Abstract:
We report a case of persisting chronic monoarthritis of the elbow in a 54-year-old woman with previous breast surgery for carcinoma. An open biopsy of the elbow showed a chronic nonspecific synovitis and a poorly differentiated metastatic adenocarcinoma on the radial head. This is the first report of elbow arthritis due to metastatic breast carcinoma.
