Abstract des Autors

A high school girl had pain in her right shoulder when she played volleyball. X-rays revealed the cause: diffuse multiple loose calcifications throughout the synovium of the shoulder. The calcifications were removed arthroscopically, and a partial synovectomy of the shoulder joint was performed. The patients prognosis was considered fair because this disorder can recur; however, it sometimes resolves with no further problems. This disorder - synovial chondromatosis - is especially rare in young athletes, occurring primarily in middle-aged men, with 60 of cases occurring in the knee. Verf.-Referat
