  • Title: [Adolescent bicipitoradial bursitis: a rare disease that can simulate a malignant tumor].
    Author: Kheireddine W, Ghanem I, Dagher F, Kharrat K.
    Journal: Rev Chir Orthop Reparatrice Appar Mot; 2008 May; 94(3):308-10. PubMed ID: 18456068.
    Abstract:
    Bicipitoradial bursitis is a rare condition: we found 36 cases reported in the literature, none in children. The main manifestation is a painful tumefaction. We report a case observed in an adolescent whose magnetic resonance imaging findings were compatible with a malignant tumor. Surgical biopsy enabled the correct diagnosis of inflammatory synovium without signs of malignancy compatible with bicipitoradial bursitis. Complete cure was achieved without resection.
