Supracondylar process of the humerus

Four cases of supracondylar process of the humerus in three patients are presented. The main features of a supracondylar process as compared with an osteochondroma are reviewed. The three patients had pain and one had signs indicating median nerve compression. One had a supracondylar process together with an osteochondroma in the contralateral supracondylar region. One patient with a bilateral supracondylar process refused an operation. The other two patients underwent surgical treatment. The symptoms disappeared in the two patients who were operated.
