Abstract

Synovial chondromatosis is a rare joint disorder characterized by the formation of multiple cartilaginous nodules within the synovial lining of the joints. The synovial lining is responsible for producing synovial fluid, which lubricates and nourishes the joints. However, in synovial chondromatosis, this lining undergoes abnormal changes, leading to the development of cartilaginous nodules or loose bodies. We present a case of synovial chondromatosis treated by arthroscopic surgery by the orthopedic service of the north clinic.
