Abstract
Synovial osteochondromatosis is a benign metaplasia involving the synovial membrane, bursas, and tendon sheaths. In the literature, involvement of the hand joints is not common. Pain, swelling, and limitation of movement in the affected joints can be seen, as well as joint locking in the advanced stages of the disease. Diagnosis is usually made using imaging methods. Accurate diagnosis and follow-up of such cases are important due to the risk of malignant degeneration.
