Abstract

We report a case of unilateral frostbite arthritis in a 58-year-old male. Clinical and radiological changes mimicked those of erosive osteoarthritis. Patients with this presentation should be carefully questioned for a history of exposure to cold, and frostbite arthritis should be considered in the differential diagnosis.
