Pediatric Synovial Osteochondromatosis of the Knee with Leg Length Discrepancy: A Case Report
Journal of Orthopaedic Case Reports(2024)
摘要
Introduction: Synovial chondromatosis (SC) is very rare among children. We are aware of no reports of patients with SC accompanied by leg length discrepancy (LLD). Case Report: We describe a case of synovial osteochondromatosis of a 7-year-old boy complicated by LLD. We performed epiphysiodesis of the distal femur and arthroscopic resection of loose bodies and total synovectomy. Three years after surgery, LLD had been corrected and there was no sign of recurrence. Conclusion: Physicians should be aware of synovial osteochondromatosis complicated by LLD in childhood and take radiographs of the whole length of lower legs when this condition is suspected. Keywords: Synovial osteochondromatosis, leg length discrepancy, knee joint, child.
