Background: Synovial chondromatosis, or osteochondromatosis, is a rare benign disorder that occurs in joints, tendon sheaths, or bursae, characterized by cartilage proliferations of varying sizes and shapes, often with ossifications. In this study the prevalence, sensitivity, gender predominance, differential diagnoses, and primary localization of synovial chondromatosis are analyzed within the Histopathological Arthritis Registry of the German Society for Orthopedic Rheumatology.
Methods: All cases of patients diagnosed with "synovial chondromatosis" from the Histopathological Arthritis Registry of the German Society for Orthopedic Rheumatology were retrospectively examined, covering the period from 1 January 2018, to 31 December 2022.

Osseous tumors of the shoulder rank second in incidence to those at the knee joint and include benign osteochondromas and myeloma or primary malignant lesions, such as osteosarcoma or chondrosarcomas. Soft tissue tumors are overwhelmingly benign, with lipomas predominating, although malignant lesions, such as liposarcomas, can occur.

Background: Synovial chondromatosis is characterized by cartilaginous metaplasia in synovial tissues. Extra-articular tenosynovial chondromatosis is considered to be an anatomical counterpart of articular synovial chondromatosis. Extra-articular tenosynovial chondromatosis occurs preferentially in the hand, although its frequency is low.
