osteochondromatosis/edema

Since synovial chondromatosis (SC) clinically mimics symptoms of internal derangements of the TMJ, the diagnostic value of MRI and CT, overlooked for years, is discussed in the presented case. Multiple amorphous calcifications in the left infratemporal fossa and upper synovial compartment of the TMJ

With the advent of magnetic resonance imaging and, subsequently, magnetic resonance arthrography, the imaging algorithm for hip pain has evolved considerably. Magnetic resonance imaging has supplanted bone scintigraphy as the first line imaging test after conventional radiographs in the setting of

Synovial chondromatosis, also known as synovial osteochondromatosis, is a rare, benign condition characterized by the formation of multiple cartilaginous nodules in the synovium of facet spaces. Synovial chondromatosis affects many joints, the knee being the most common. The present report examined

Adult hip pathologies are mainly represented by the degenerative disease, so called "osteoarthrosis, or more precisely coxarthrosis". The means of imaging are exposed, according to their specific value: X Rays (measurement of the characteristic angles of the adult hip), Arthrography, CT Scanner,

Hoffa's syndrome involves inflammation of the infrapatellar fat pad secondary to direct trauma or microtrauma. Alternative sources of inflammation of Hoffa's fat pad include synovial processes such as pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) and osteochondromatosis. Recently, a few cases of

Flare-ups of the hips are among the most feared and disabling complications of fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) and are poorly understood. In order to better understand the nature of hip flare-ups in FOP, we evaluated 25 consecutive individuals with classic FOP (14 males, 11 females;
