    Abstract:
    A series of six elbows with aseptic osteonecrotic lesions is reported in a population of sickle cell anemic patients. Pain and range of motion limitation were the most commonly observed symptoms during the course of the disease. Three of these elbows had to undergo a surgical procedure (core decompression or loose body excision).
