Secondary synovial chondromatosis is the more common form and often occurs when there is pre-existent osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteonecrosis, osteochondritis dissecans, neuropathic osteoarthropathy (which often occurs in diabetic individuals), tuberculosis, or osteochondral fractures (torn cartilage covering the end of a bone in a ...
Synovial osteochondromatosis (SOC) (synonyms include synovial chondromatosis, primary synovial chondromatosis, synovial chondrometaplasia) is a rare disease that creates a benign change or proliferation in the synovium or joint-lining tissue, which changes to form bone-forming cartilage. In most occurrences, there is only one joint affected ...
D-TGCT tumors often develop from the lining of joints (also known as synovial tissue). [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 3 ] : 100 [ 4 ] [ 4 ] : 245 . Localized/nodular TGCT (L-TGCT), sometimes referred to as “giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath” ; [ 3 ] : 100 is a common tumor that presents as a slow-growing, encapsulated, localized and limited bump, most ...
Hereditary multiple osteochondromas (HMO), also known as hereditary multiple exostoses, is a disorder characterized by the development of multiple benign osteocartilaginous masses in relation to the ends of long bones of the lower limbs such as the femurs and tibias and of the upper limbs such as the humeri and forearm bones.
Familial synovial chondromatosis with dwarfism is a rare genetic disorder characterized by a combination of both synovial chondromatosis and dwarfism. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Only 3 families from Germany and the United States worldwide have been described with the disorder, and they showed either X-linked or autosomal dominant inheritance.
The inner layer is mainly composed of two cell types, specialized macrophages (macrophage-like synovial cells) and fibroblast-like synoviocytes, which are important in maintaining the internal joint homeostasis. These cells represent the main source of hyaluronic acid and also other glycoproteins, major components of the synovial fluid. [1] [2]
