Primary synovial chondromatosis of the first tarsometatarsal joint: a rare case report
Egyptian Rheumatology and Rehabilitation, 2016 Primary synovial chondromatosis is a rare condition and commonly involves a single large joint, although it may involve any synovial joint. It occurs as a result of metaplasia and focal formation of cartilage in the intimal layer of the synovial membrane.
