ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES@#To evaluate the value of arthroscopy in the diagnosis and treatment of synovial chondromatosis of the temporomandibular joint (TMJSC).@*METHODS@#The cases of 16 patients preliminarily diagnosed with TMJSC by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) from July 2011 to December 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. If the diagnosis was confirmed by arthroscopy, the opening operation was performed. The preoperative MRI, arthroscopy and opening operation, postoperative pathology and postoperative MRI of confirmed cases were analyzed, and clinical follow-up was performed to evaluate the curative effect of open surgery. The degree of mouth opening and visual analogue scale (VAS) scores for pain pre-operation and during follow-up of the confirmed cases were analyzed by @*RESULTS@#Fourteen cases of TMJSC were diagnosed by arthroscopy, consistent with the postoperative pathological diagnosis. Postoperative MRI examination showed that articular cavity lesions basically disappeared. Ten patients with synovial chondromatosis were followed-up (follow-up rate, 71.4%) from 6 months to 7 years and 8 months (average follow-up time, 17.6 months); no recurrence was found, and clinical symptoms improved by varying degrees. Before operation and at follow-up, @*CONCLUSIONS@#Arthroscopy is essential in the diagnosis and treatment of TMJ synovial chondromatosis.

La osteocondromatosis sinovial es una metaplasia benigna de la membrana sinovial que afecta a 1 de cada 100 000 personas, en su mayoría adultos, y es extremadamente infrecuente en edad pediátrica. Predomina en grandes articulaciones, sobre todo la rodilla, y la sintomatología es, por lo general, inespecífica. Dado que la radiografía simple no suele ser concluyente, se recurre a la resonancia magnética nuclear y a la tomografía axial computarizada para orientar el diagnóstico. Se expone el caso de una paciente de 10 años de edad con gonalgia y dismorfia en la patela izquierda de seis meses de evolución, con diagnóstico de osteocondromatosis sinovial. Se presenta el caso dado que se trata de una entidad muy rara en niños, pero que requiere un tratamiento quirúrgico precoz para evitar sus posibles complicaciones, como la destrucción articular progresiva o la malignización a condrosarcoma.
Synovial osteochondromatosis consists of a synovial metaplasia which affects 1 per 100 000 people. It is a very rare disease among children. It typically affects large joints of the body, especially the knee. Due to the lack of specificity of the signs and symptoms and X-Ray images, imaging tests such as nuclear magnetic resonance or computerized tomography are frequently needed for diagnosis.We report a case of a ten-year-old female patient with a six months history of pain and deformity of left patella which was diagnosed with synovial osteochondromatosis. This case highlights the importance of clinical suspicion, not only because it is an extremely rare disease in children, but also because it needs a surgical treatment as soon as possible in order to avoid consequences it might have in pediatric age, as joint destruction or malignization to chondrosarcoma.

RESUMEN: La condromatosis sinovial (CS), es una lesión benigna poco frecuente y de clínica bastante inespecífica. Suele afectar articulaciones de huesos largos como la rodilla, el codo y la cadera, presentándose generalmente de manera unilateral. Se cree que solo un 3 % de los casos de CS afecta la articulación temporomandibular. Esta condición se caracteriza por ser un trastorno metaplásico del tejido conectivo sinovial que suele manifestarse con la formación de pequeños y múltiples nódulos de cartílago que posteriormente pueden desprenderse, calcificarse y formar cuerpos libres dentro del espacio articular. Presentamos el caso de una mujer de 55 años con condromatosis sinovial de la articulación temporomandibular, tratada desde hace 3 años bajo el diagnóstico de desórdenes temporomandibulares. A pesar de ser considerada una lesión de tipo benigna, esta puede llegar a ser localmente agresiva, extendiéndose como en nuestro reporte hacia la fosa craneal media, adelgazando parte del hueso temporal.
ABSTRACT: Synovial chondromatosis (CS) is a benign lesion that is rare and clinically quite nonspecific. It usually affects the joints of long bones such as the knee, elbow and hip, usually occurring unilaterally. It is believed that in only 3 % of cases of CS the temporomandibular joint. This is a condition its characterized by being a metaplastic synovial connective tissue that manifests itself with the formation of small and multiple cartridges that detach, calcify and form free bodies within the joint space. We present the case of a 55-year-old woman with synovial chondromatosis of the temporomandibular joint, treated for 3 years under the diagnosis of temporomandibular disorders. Despite being considered a benign lesion, this can become locally aggressive, extending as in our report to the cranial fossa, thinning part of the temporal bone.

Abstract Synovial chondromatosis is a rare condition characterized by benign chondrogenic metaplasia of extra-articular synovial tissue. It usually affects a single tendon sheath of the hand or foot. This report describes a rare case with extensive synovial chondromatosis affecting all flexor tendons in the tarsal tunnel, its radiological features, surgical treatment, and clinical outcome. The authors present a unique case of extensive synovial chondromatosis in a 48-year-old male involving the tendon sheaths of the flexor hallucis longus, flexor digitorum longus, and posterior tibialis tendons, at the level of the tarsal tunnel, with extension into the plantar aspect of the foot. The patient initially presentedwith symptoms of tarsal tunnel compression and was found to have a 4-cm mass in the posteromedial aspect of the ankle. The presumptive diagnosis of synovial chondromatosiswasmadebased on radiographic and magnetic resonance imaging evidence. The patient underwent surgical resection of the tumor, aswell as tarsal tunnel releaseandgastrocnemius recession. The diagnosiswas confirmed postoperatively by surgical histopathology. The postoperative course of the patient was uncomplicated and his tarsal tunnel symptoms resolved. This represents a case of extensive synovial chondromatosis involving all flexor tendons in the tarsal tunnel that was correctly diagnosed by clinical and imaging findings, which required early surgical resection to avoid long-term neurovascular complications.
Resumo A condromatose sinovial é uma condição rara caracterizada por metaplasia condrogênica benigna do tecido sinovial extra-articular, que geralmente afeta uma única bainha tendínea da mão ou do pé. O objetivo é relatar o caso raro de um paciente com diagnóstico de condromatose sinovial extensa afetando todos os tendões flexores na topografia do túnel do tarso, suas características radiológicas, tratamento cirúrgico e desfecho clínico. Os autores apresentam um caso único de condromatose sinovial extensa em um homem de 48 anos envolvendo as bainhas dos tendões flexor longo do hálux, flexor longo dos dedos e tibial posterior, na topografia do túnel do tarso, com extensão para a região plantar do retropé. O sintoma inicial foi de compressão neurovascular (síndrome do túnel do tarso). A suspeita diagnóstica foi condromatose sinovial com base em evidências radiográficas e de ressonância magnética. O paciente foi submetido a ressecção cirúrgica do tumor, bem como a liberação do túnel tarsal e alongamento do tendão dos gastrocnêmios. O diagnóstico foi confirmado por exame histopatológico do espécime colhido no período intraoperatório. A evolução pósoperatória do paciente ocorreu sem complicações e os sintomas da síndrome do túnel do tarso cessaram. Os autores relatam um caso de condromatose sinovial extensa envolvendo todos os tendões flexores do túnel do tarso, corretamente diagnosticado por achados clínicos e radiológicos e que necessitou de ressecção cirúrgica precoce para evitar complicações neurovasculares em longo prazo.

La condromatosis sinovial se caracteriza por la formación de múltiples nódulos cartilaginosos intraarticulares del tejido subsinovial, que puede ser diagnosticada erróneamente debido a la ausencia de un examen físico, o de hallazgos en RM característicos en etapas iniciales. Se presenta un caso de una mujer de 33 años que consulta por dolor, pseudobloqueo y contractura en flexión de rodilla izquierda sin antecedente traumático previo. Debido a la sospecha de condromatosis sinovial de rodilla, se indicó la exploración artroscópica. Intraoperatoriamente se identificaron múltiples cuerpos sueltos intra y extraarticulares cartilaginosos: se realizó una sinovectomía radical y extracción de cuerpos libres. Al año de seguimiento, el paciente recuperó el rango completo de movimiento y retornó íntegramente a la actividad deportiva. Los resultados del presente informe indican que, en casos en los que existe una sospecha de condromatosis sinovial, la exploración artroscópica es un método eficaz para el diagnóstico y tratamiento con resultados satisfactorios. Tipo de estudio: Reporte de caso. Nivel de evidencia: IV
We report an unusual presentation of synovial chondromatosis of the knee in a 33-year-old women. At this unusual age and location, there is a greater probability of missed diagnosis, due to the lack of definite informative incidence, and difficulty in finding the lesions. In this case, intra and extraarticular multiple loose bodies were hidden. After careful arthroscopic inspection, we found numerous cartilaginous loose bodies and removed them with arthroscopy in association with sinovectomy. Synovial chondromatosis, is a rare, benign condition characterized by the formation of multiple intraarticular cartilaginous nodules from the subsynovial tissue. Synovial chondromatosis can be often misdiagnosed due to the lack of a specific physical exam or MRI findings in early stages. The present report examines a 33-year-old female with symptoms of left knee flexion contracture, pain mechanical locking without previous traumatic event. Following admittance, an arthroscopic exploration was conducted. Multiple cartilage-like intra and extraarticular loose bodies were identified in the patient's joints during surgery. Radical synovectomy and removal of loose bodies were performed. Following one year follow-up, the patient recovered full range of motion and returned to sports activities. The results of the present report indicate that, in cases where synovial chondromatosis is suspected, arthroscopic exploration is an effective method for diagnosis and treatment with satisfactory results. Type of Study: Case report. Level of evidence: IV

ABSTRACT Synovial chondromatosis is a benign arthropathy rarely seen in diarthrodial joints. Extra-articular bilateral symmetrical synovial chondromatosis of shoulder is the rarest variety. The diagnosis is established with the help of imaging modalities and histopathological examinations. This report describes a case of a 39-year-old woman who presented with symmetrical, progressively increasing swelling over the bilateral shoulder region, of 12-18 months duration, with dull ache and restricted movements of the shoulder joints. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasonography (USG) revealed large bilateral subacromial-subdeltoid bursal swelling with loose floating bodies. Surgical excision of extensive bilateral bursa was performed at four weeks of interval. Histopathological examination revealed synovial chondromatosis on either side. Postoperative recovery occurred without complications.
RESUMO A condromatose sinovial é uma artropatia benigna raramente vista em articulações diartrodiais. A condromatose sinovial simétrica bilateral extra-articular do ombro é a variedade mais rara. O diagnóstico é estabelecido com a ajuda de exames de imagem e histopatológicos. Este relato descreve o caso de uma paciente de 39 anos, com aumento de volume progressivo simétrico sobre a região bilateral do ombro com 12-18 meses de duração com dor entorpecido e limitação dos movimentos das articulações do ombro. A ressonância magnética e a ultrassonografia revelaram um grande aumento de volume da bursa subacromial subdeltoidea bilateral com corpos livres flutuantes. A excisão cirúrgica extensa da bursa bilateral foi feita com quatro semanas de intervalo. O exame histopatológico revelou condromatose sinovial em ambos os lados. A recuperação pós-operatória transcorreu sem complicações.

La condromatosis sinovial es una enfermedad de etiología desconocida, poco frecuente, benigna, caracterizada por la formación de nódulos cartilaginosos metaplásicos dentro de la sinovial, bursa o vaina de tendones. Estos nódulos pueden desprenderse y convertirse en cuerpos libres dentro de la articulación. Afecta a los hombres dos veces más que las mujeres y, por lo general, ocurre entre la tercera y quinta década de la vida. Este proceso monoarticular afecta más comúnmente a la rodilla, seguido de la cadera, el codo, el hombro y tobillo. La afección extraarticular puede ocurrir si la proliferación de cuerpos libres rompen a través de la cápsula de la articulación o si las estructuras sinoviales fuera de la articulación (por ejemplo, vainas de los tendones, bursas) están involucradas. Se presenta un paciente de sexo masculino de 30 años de edad que acude por dolor en tobillo derecho, disminución del rango de movilidad y limitación progresiva para la deambulación de un año y medio de evolución. Al examen físico presentaba clínica de síndrome friccional anterior en tobillo, rango de movilidad limitado (flexión plantar 25º y dorsal 20º. No presenta antecedentes de inestabilidad previa ni comorbilidades. Con la presunción diagnóstica de condromatosis sinovial de tobillo se decidió llevar a cabo una artroscopia anterior de tobillo diagnóstica y terapéutica. Al año postoperatorio presentaba 30º de flexión plantar y 25º de flexión dorsal, sin dolor y sin recurrencia en las imágenes radiográficas. El escore del American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society mejoro de 49 puntos en el preoperatorio a 97 puntos en el postoperatorio. En el caso presentado la artrosocopía permitió el tratamiento de la condromatosis sinovial de tobillo con buen resultado al año.
Synovial chondromatosis is an uncommon, benign disease of unknown etiology characterized by the formation of metaplastic cartilaginous nodes within the synovial bursa or tendon sheath. These nodules may break off and become free in the articular joint. It affects men twice more than women and usually occurs between the third and fifth decade of life. This monoarticular process most commonly affects the knee, followed by the hip, elbow, shoulder and ankle. The extra-articular condition can occur if the proliferation of loose bodies break through the joint capsule or synovial structures outside the joint (eg, tendon sheaths, bursae) are involved. We present a male patient of 30 years old who consulted for right ankle pain, decreased range of motion and progressive ambulation limitation for a year and a half of evolution. Physical examination showed clinical anterior impingement, limited dorsal and plantar flexion (25 and 20 degrees respectively), without instability. No history of relevance. With the suspected diagnosis of synovial chondromatosis it was decided to carry out a diagnostic and therapeutic arthroscopy of the ankle. At a year postoperative showed 30 degrees plantar flexion and 25 degrees of dorsiflexion, painlessly and without recurrence in radiographic images. The American orthopaedic foot and ankle society score improves from 49 in the preop to 97 in the postop. Arthroscopic treatment for ankle synovial chondromatosis provides acceptable improvement of clinical symptoms and range of motion at a year postop.

Objetivo: presentar las características clínicas y por imágenes de un paciente con condromatosis sinovial en la articulación temporomandibular izquierda y el tratamiento realizado. Caso clínico: la condromatosis sinovial es una artropatía benigna crónica, progresiva y proliferativa, que suele afectar las articulaciones largas y, con poca frecuencia, la articulación temporomandibular. En este último caso, la enfermedad se caracteriza por el desarrollo de nódulo cartilaginosos en el espacio articular. Los síntomas clínicos de condromatosis sinovial en la ATM son dolor, inflamación, crepitación, maloclusión y disfunción. Esta sintomatología es común a la de otras patologías en la misma articulación, por lo que la sospecha y el diagnóstico de condromatosis sinovial son en sí un desafío. Conclusión: la condromatosis sinovial es una patología poco frecuente en la articulación temporomandibular. Una vez diagnosticada, yta sea en estadíos tempranos o avanzados, se puede optar por diversos tratamientos, con excelentes pronósticos.

Introducción: La condromatosis sinovial se define como una lesión metaplásica benigna, de baja incidencia en cadera. La técnica ideal de tratamiento genera controversia por la probable recurrencia y la progresión degenerativa descrita para técnicas tanto a cielo abierto como artroscópicas. El objetivo de este trabajo es reportar la técnica quirúrgica y los resultados a corto plazo en una serie de pacientes con condromatosis sinovial de cadera tratados por vía artroscópica. Materiales y Métodos: Entre abril de 2007 y mayo de 2011, 10 pacientes (9 mujeres y 1 hombre, edad promedio 38 años; rango 17-53) fueron operados por vía artroscópica a causa de una condromatosis sinovial de cadera. Se evaluaron la técnica quirúrgica, los resultados clínicos y radiológicos, y el grado de satisfacción con el procedimiento. La escala funcional de Harris modificada preoperatoria fue de 51 puntos (rango 49-54). La histología diferida confirmó el diagnóstico en todos los casos. El seguimiento prospectivo fue, en promedio, de 35 meses (rango 24-47). Resultados: En todos los casos, se realizó una técnica artroscópica convencional para extraer cuerpos libres y sinovectomía parcial anterolateral. En tres pacientes, se amplió la incisión de uno de los portales para extraer cuerpos de gran diámetro. La escala funcional de Harris modificada posoperatoria fue, en promedio, de 88 puntos (rango 85-91). No se observó progreso degenerativo articular radiológico en el último control. Todos los pacientes se mostraron satisfechos con el procedimiento. No se registraron complicaciones. Conclusiones: Los resultados a corto plazo favorables coinciden con los publicados. Los pacientes con condromatosis sinovial de cadera pueden ser tratados por vía artroscópica en forma segura y eficaz. Diseño del estudio: Estudio terapéutico Nivel de evidencia: IV...
Background: Synovial chondromatosis is defined as a benign metaplastic lesion, with a low incidence in hips. The ideal treatment technique is controversial due to the probable recurrence and degenerative progression described with both arthroscopic and open surgery. The aim of this study is to report the surgical technique and shortterm results in a series of patients with synovial chondromatosis treated with arthroscopic hip. Methods: From April 2007 to May 2011, 10 patients (9 women and a man; average age 38 years; range 17-53) underwent hip arthroscopy for synovial chondromatosis. Surgical technique, clinical and radiological results, and satisfaction with the procedure were evaluated. The preoperative modified Harris hip functional scale was 51 points (range 49-54). Delayed histology confirmed diagnosis in all cases. Prospective follow-up averaged 35 months (range 24-47). Results: The conventional arthroscopic technique to extract loose bodies and partial anterolateral synovectomy were performed in all patients. In three patients incision of one of the portals was extended to extract bodies of large diameter. The postoperative modified Harris hip functional scale averaged 88 points (range 85-91). No radiographic joint degenerative progress was seen at the last control. All patients were satisfied with the procedure. There were no complications. Conclusions: Favorable short-term results are consistent with those reported in the literature. Patients with synovial chondromatosis can be treated with hip arthroscopy safely and effectively. Design of the Study: Therapeutic. Level of Evidence: IV...

Elbow arthroscopy has dramatically altered the approach to the diagnosis and treatment of a variety of elbow joint problems. Thirteen elbows Arthroscopy had been done removing different sizes of loose bodies from both anterior and posterior elbow compartments. In addition to loose bodies removal partial synovectomy of three cases with synovial chondromatosis had been done with excellent outcome. Pain relief and improvement of elbow range of motion were recorded in this procedure where eleven patients had scored as excellent and good. Average follow up were 6months. Elbow arthroscopy is valuable technique that must be encouraged to be used more and more in different elbow pathologies

As vias de acesso para abordagem medial do quadril descritas na literatura têm-se mostrado insuficientes para o tratamento dos tumores que afetam, simultaneamente, as regiöes anterior, medial e posterior. Os autores descrevem uma via de abordagem medial, por uma inguinotomia, que facilita a ressecçäo dos tumores dessa área. A desinserçäo da musculatura adutora constitui etapa importante desta técnica que possibilita exposiçäo ampla e melhor manipulaçäo dos tecidos. Näo houve complicaçöes pós-operatórias decorrentes do emprego dessa via nos nove casos em que foi empregada. As vantagens incluem: facilidade, rapidez, pequeno sangramento intra-operatório, segurança quanto às estruturas neurovasculares e a ampla exposiçäo que proporciona.
