66-year-old male with question of abnormal mass over the left lateral epicondyle.

Irregular cortical margin of the lateral epicondyle corresponding to that seen on the prior radiograph is compatible with history of prior trauma. Shadowing foci overlying the radiocapitellar joint correlates with well-corticated ossicles seen on radiograph.
No soft tissue mass is evident as clinically queried. Findings reflecting prior trauma and osteoarthritis as described above correlating with that seen on the prior radiograph. An orthopedic consult/MR elbow may be considered if clinically warranted.
