Abstrakt: Synovial chondromatosis is a rare pathology that involves most frequently the weight-bearing joints. It is due to the development of cartilaginous bodies from the synovial membrane that could migrate threw the joint. Primary and secondary forms exist. Clinical examination will be marked by swellings and loss of mobility. Cross-sectional imaging has the preference. The treatment of choice is the removal of cartilaginous loose bodies with or without a synovectomy.
