Osteochondritis Dissecans of the Humeral Head: A Case Report and Review of the Literature %K Glenohumeral joint %K humerus %K Osteochondritis dissecans %R 10.22038/abjs.2016.7862 %X   Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) is a common joint disorder in knee, ankle and elbow, however it can be rarely found in glenohumeral joint. In this study, we report an asymptomatic case of humeral head OCD, which was detected incidentally following a trauma. X-rays showed an area of lucency around an oval bony fragment measuring about 1 cm on the superior aspect of the humeral head. However, the patient was pain-free and the shoulder range of motion was normal. %U https://abjs.mums.ac.ir/article_7862_4915b73574fef1b639c0547a9a68262e.pdf
