The photograph of the lesion shows the classical enlarged swelling over the olecranon. Ultrasonography of the swelling shows a well-defined, oval, cystic lesion in the subcutaneous space- indicating fluid collection in the olecranon bursa. There is echogenic content in the lesion showing increased vascularity- suggestive of synovial proliferation and hyperemia.
