Presentation
The authors present the case of a young man with elbow synovial osteochondromatosis associated with ulnar nerve neuropathy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Flushing
Pulse irrigation was applied to flush out the residuals. More than 872 of osteochondromatosis were removed out of the hip joint (some small ones were sucked during the operation). [jocr.co.in]
Musculoskeletal
-
Bone Pain
However, there is mild swelling and tenderness around the second metacarpal bone. Pain was aggravated during wrist and finger flexion. An electrodiagnostic study revealed CTS. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Skeletal Dysplasia
Synovial manifestations of skeletal dysplasias have to our knowledge not been described previously but we suggest that synovial osteochondromatosis can be the manifestation of an underlying skeletal dysplasia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Tingling
After 2 weeks, the tingling sensation decreased slightly. However mild swelling and tenderness around the second metacarpal bone did not improve. Ultrasonography showed multiple echogenic foci. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Workup
Concerns for possible RA led to a workup. [mdedge.com]
Laboratory workup revealed a normal white blood cell count: 7000/mm (normal; 4500-10,000/mm), a normal C-reactive protein: 1.0 mg/L (normal; 0-4 mg/L), and mildly elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate count: 22 mm/h (normal; 20 mm/h). [sjosm.org]
X-Ray

Joint Space Narrowing
RESULTS: At hip radiography, juxta-articular calcified and/ or ossified bodies were seen in 12 of the 15 patients (80%), bone erosion in eight (53%), osteophytes in seven (47%), juxta-articular osteopenia in five (33%) and joint space narrowing in five [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Additional radiographic findings include joint effusion and degenerative changes such as joint space narrowing, subchondral sclerosis, and osteophyte formation. [en.wikipedia.org]
Plain radiographs of the knee joints revealed joint effusions with multiple rounded intra-articular loose bodies, erosions on the medial aspect of the tibial plateau, tricompartmental joint space narrowing, osteophytes, subchondral cyst formation, heterotopic [archivesofrheumatology.org]
Treatment
We describe the surgical treatment and postoperative treatment of patients with synovial osteochondromatosis with moderate signs of secondary osteoarthritis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis
The authors review the literature, clinical findings, proposed etiology, classification, ancillary tests, histopathology, differential diagnosis, treatment options, and prognosis. A case report of this rare entity is also presented. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The prognosis is good, but recurrences may occur if the removal is incomplete. [wjso.biomedcentral.com]
Etiology
Synovial osteochondromatosis is a benign disease of unknown etiology that involves the articular and periarticular structures. The disorder primarily affects men, and trauma is the most common predisposing factor. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

,, Epidemiology and Pathogenesis Primary synovial chondromatosis preferentially affects one joint with predilection for large joints such as the knee, hip, elbow or shoulder. However, it can be seen in any joint, tendon or bursa. [radsource.us]
Pathophysiology
The pathophysiology of this condition is multifactorial, and majority of cases of CTS are idiopathic. We report cases of CTS caused by synovial osteochondromatosis (SOC), which has rarely been reported. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Streamline the decision-making process with integrated protocols, classic signs, and ACR guidelines, as well as a design that structures every chapter consistently to include pathophysiology, imaging techniques, imaging findings, differential diagnosis [books.google.de]
Prevention
Our advice is to remove all the loose bodies carefully to prevent damage to the prosthesis. During follow-up, special attention should be paid to prevent recurrence of SO. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Surgical removal of loose bodies and synovectomy may relieve symptoms and prevent hip joint degeneration, the sequelae of which can be especially devastating in the younger patient population commonly affected by the condition. [arthritisresearch.us]
