Surgical Options for Primary Synovial Chondromatosis of the Knee: A Systematic Review
Background
Synovial chondromatosis is a rare benign condition characterized by the formation of cartilaginous nodules within the synovium of joints, bursae, or tendon sheaths. While nonsurgical management exists, surgical intervention is often necessary. This systematic review aims to evaluate surgical options for managing synovial chondromatosis of the knee and compare recurrence rates following each procedure.
Methods
Adhering to the Preferred Reporting Items of Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis guidelines, a literature search was conducted using PubMed, SCOPUS, and Embase, up to April 2025. Studies included detailed surgical interventions for primary synovial chondromatosis of the knee.
Results
Thirty-seven studies met the inclusion criteria, comprising 30 case reports, 4 retrospective studies, and 3 case series, involving 120 patients (70 males, 49 females, 1 unspecified). Surgical techniques were categorized into open, arthroscopic, and combined approaches. Open approaches included arthrotomies without synovectomy, partial and total synovectomies, and total knee arthroplasty. Arthroscopic approaches involved washouts and synovectomies (partial and total). Combined approaches included staged surgeries with both open and arthroscopic techniques. Recurrence rates varied: open arthrotomy (0%; 1 and 20 year follow-up), arthroscopic synovectomy (5.71%; average follow-up duration 1.53 years), open synovectomy (12.5%; average follow-up 2.04 years), total knee arthroplasty (20.8% average follow-up 10.3 years), and arthroscopic washout (31.4%; average follow-up 6.56 years). Combined approaches reported no recurrences in 6 cases with average follow-up 1.44 years.
Conclusions
This systematic review highlights variability in recurrence across techniques. Arthroscopic synovectomy and combined approaches demonstrated the lowest recurrence; however, the choice of surgical method should be tailored to the individual patient's condition and the surgeon's expertise.
期刊介绍:
Arthroplasty Today is a companion journal to the Journal of Arthroplasty. The journal Arthroplasty Today brings together the clinical and scientific foundations for joint replacement of the hip and knee in an open-access, online format. Arthroplasty Today solicits manuscripts of the highest quality from all areas of scientific endeavor that relate to joint replacement or the treatment of its complications, including those dealing with patient outcomes, economic and policy issues, prosthetic design, biomechanics, biomaterials, and biologic response to arthroplasty. The journal focuses on case reports. It is the purpose of Arthroplasty Today to present material to practicing orthopaedic surgeons that will keep them abreast of developments in the field, prove useful in the care of patients, and aid in understanding the scientific foundation of this subspecialty area of joint replacement. The international members of the Editorial Board provide a worldwide perspective for the journal''s area of interest. Their participation ensures that each issue of Arthroplasty Today provides the reader with timely, peer-reviewed articles of the highest quality.
