Abstract EN

Pediatric septic arthritis is uncommon and has been traditionally treated by joint aspiration or open arthrotomy.

There are some reports about arthroscopic surgery in pediatric septic arthritis of the knee, hip, and shoulder.

However, there is no report for the case of elbow.

We report a case of pediatric septic arthritis of elbow treated with arthroscopically with good clinical condition at 3-year follow-up.

This paper is based on a report first published in Japanese (Tojo (2012)).
