Abstract
Primary Synovial Chondromatosis of the Hip in Adolescent-A Case Report
Highlights
Synovial chondromatosis is a rare benign arthropathy affecting diarthrodial joints
Primary synovial chondromatosis (PSC) is a benign, idiopathic, metaplastic disorder of the synovial membrane, with secondary formation of osteochondral nodules [3,5,6]. It could be different sizes, and if it presents a nodules over 1 cm of the diameter it is called giant solitary synovial chondromatosis [4]
According to Milgram, it has been postulated that PSC appears in 3 separate phases: phase 1 is active intrasynovial disease without the presence of free intraarticular bodies; phase 2 is a transitional stage, involving both an active intrasynovial proliferation and intraarticular loose bodies; and phase 3 is multiple loose bodies without obvious intrasynovial disease [6]
