Synovial Hemangioma in a 2-Year Old Mimicking Synovial Osteochondromatosis
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a rare synovial mass arising from the elbow of a 2-year old female. It was growing slowly for three months and there was no history of trauma or fever. Plain radiographs showed a soft tissue mass around the elbow with scattered nodular intraarticular calcifications. Ultrasound and MRI confirmed the synovial location of the mass and again showed the multiple calcifications, some of which suggested intraarticular loose bodies. The imaging findings were thought to represent synovial osteochondromatosis but subsequent biopsy revealed a synovial hemangioma and it is for this reason that we present our case.

Synovial osteochondromatosis is a benign metaplasia of the synovium resulting in the formation of osteocartilaginous nodules within the synovial lining. At presentation, radiographs typically reveal these nodules to have broken free from the synovial lining, becoming loose bodies residing in the free space of the affected joint. These fragments readily receive the necessary nutrients for contin...
