Synovial chondromatosis of the hip: a case report and clinicopathologic study.

Primary synovial chondromatosis (PSC) is a rare, usually monoarticular disorder of synovial joints. PSC is characterised by the formation of osteocartilaginous nodules in the synovial connective tissue. We report the case of a 32-year-old male with PSC of the left hip.

Delayed tendon reattachment does not reverse atrophy and fat accumulation of the supraspinatus--an experimental study in rabbits.

Muscle atrophy and fat accumulation occur after rotator cuff tearing. Whether these changes are reversible after a successful repair is still unknown. Imaging allows only a semi-quantitative assessment of muscle atrophy and fat deposition.
