Abstract

Synovial chondromatosis (SC) is a rarely encountered benign disease of unknown etiology characterized by multiple joint mouse, as well as metaplastic cartilage points in the joint, bursa and tendon sheaths. Although single joint involvement is frequently encountered, multiple joint involvements may also occur. In this study, two patients with SC in the right shoulder joint and in both ankles were presented, reviewed according to literature.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on medication adherence

Live: Thursday 27th June 2024, 18:00-19:30 (CEST)

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
