Article Synopsis
- - Tenosynovitis with psammomatous calcifications (TPC) is a rare, non-cancerous condition that often affects women and is thought to result from repetitive use or trauma, commonly appearing at sites like the hands, feet, and wrists.
- - In a study involving 18 new cases, most patients presented with painful masses, and imaging often showed benign characteristics, but many of these cases were misdiagnosed as more serious conditions like gout or tumors.
- - Follow-up on patients (mostly for around 30 months) showed no local recurrences after surgical removal, highlighting the necessity for greater awareness among medical professionals regarding TPC.

Article Synopsis
- * The tumor, identified as a "calcified chondroid mesenchymal neoplasm" (CCMN) through molecular analysis, was surgically removed, showing extensive changes indicative of its aggressive nature.
- * Follow-up imaging for over two years showed no residual tumor, but ongoing monitoring is crucial due to potential local recurrences; targeted therapies may be considered for any future recurrences involving the FGFR2 fusion.

Tumors resembling tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT) but additionally forming chondroid matrix are rare and most often involve the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). We studied 21 tumors consisting of synoviocytes (large, eosinophilic mononuclear cells containing hemosiderin) and chondroid matrix to better understand these unusual neoplasms. The tumors occurred in 10 males and 11 females, in the age group of 31 to 80 years (median, 50 years) and involved the TMJ region (16), extremities (4), and spine (1).

Recently, FN1 fusions to receptor tyrosine kinase genes have been identified in soft tissue tumors with calcified chondroid matrix named calcifying chondroid mesenchymal neoplasms (CCMNs). We collected 33 cases of CCMN from the French network for soft tissue and bone tumors. We performed whole-exome RNA sequencing, expression analysis, and genome-wide DNA methylation profiling in 33, 30, and 20 cases of CCMN compared with a control group of tumors, including noncalcified tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT).

Endometriosis is a common cause of pain and infertility. Abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) is a form of extrapelvic endometriosis that can be encountered during abdominal surgery such as abdominoplasty or free flap harvest. We report two cases of AWE; one found intraoperatively in a 32-year-old woman desiring body contouring after undergoing cesarean section, and a second in a 36-year-old woman requiring resection and reconstruction of a left chondroid tenosynovial giant cell tumor of her temporomandibular joint.
