Snapping elbow in an extremely rare disorder. We have recently treated two cases with characteristic snapping phenomenon of the elbow. Roentgenograms of the elbows were normal. At the time of operation, thickened fold of synovial tissue was noticed in the radiohumeral articulation as a cause of snapping in one case. Thickened node of synovial tissue in the olecranon fossa was disclosed as a cause of snapping in the second case. Excision of these synovial folds abolished the snapping. No other abnormility of the joint was observed.
