Case Discussion
Knowledge of the ossification centers of a normal pediatric elbow is important. An easy mnemonic to remember is: CRITOE
- capitellum: 2-24 months
- radial head: 3-6 years
- internal (medial) epicondyle: 4-7 years
- trochlea: 8-10 years
- olecranon 8-10 years
- external (lateral) epicondyle: 10-13 years
