A seven year old stallion was presented with history of golf ball sized growth over left elbow and observable lameness since last two months. Clinical approach included history, clinical examination and surgical management along with supportive medication. Clinical examination revealed chronic, prominent and often freely movable swelling over the point of elbow. On basis of history and clinical examination, the case was diagnosed as 'capped elbow' that might be comprised of fibrous tissue. Growth over left elbow was removed surgically with observable healing. The animal made an uneventful recovery.
