Abstract
According to pathogenesis, osteoarthritis can be primary (idiopathic) or secondary. Among young adults, secondary osteoarthritis is more common and is associated with prior surgery, crystal deposition (gout, CPPD), inflammatory arthritis (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, seronegative spondyloarthritis), or haemochromatosis. We describe, imaging findings in elbow osteoarthritis in this chapter.
