Abstract

Synovial chondromatosis developes by metaplasia of synovial cell into chondroblast in synovium of joint. It most commonly involves large joints such as knee or hip, and rarely occurs in shoulder joint. It is often difficult to be diagnosed preoperatively and surgical synovectomy is known to be effective treatment. We encountered a case of synovial chondromatosis with hyaline cartilage forming loose body in subacromial and subdeltoid synovium on the shoulder of a 44-year old female suffered by pain and discomfort. The authors report this case with a review of the relevant literature.
