Article Synopsis
- Synovial chondromatosis (SC) is a rare benign condition characterized by cartilage nodules in joint cavities, primarily affecting the knee, with unusual cases involving both intra- and extra-articular components.
- A 38-year-old woman experienced knee discomfort and a noticeable mass, leading to MRI findings of lesions both inside and outside the joint, prompting a two-step surgical procedure for removal.
- Post-surgery, the patient achieved full relief from symptoms after one year, highlighting that comprehensive surgical treatment is crucial for managing SC, especially in cases with extra-articular involvement.
