a Case 2: long-axis view of the distal humerus at the olecrenon fossa; FP posterior fat pad. Elevated posterior fat pad on right elbow compared to left elbow. Right fat pad with heterogeneous echotexture consistent with lipohemarthrosis. b Case 2: short-axis views of the distal humerus at the olecrenon fossa; FP posterior fat pad. Right fat pad elevated compared to normal left. Right fat pad with heterogeneous echotexture consistent with lipohemarthrosis. c Case 2: X-ray correlation
