chondral synovial calcinosis or chondro synovial calcinosis - not sure


Posted: Apr 14, 2010

I cannot document either of these. TIA

 

.....1 week postoperative arthroscopy and debridement of the left knee with findings of a posterior horn tear of the medial meniscus, and a peripheral degenerative tear of the lateral meniscus, and chondral synovial calcinosis.

you sure you hear synovial?? sm - Deb

and not just chondrocalcinosis?

yes, that word is clear. :-) - not sure

that is why I am so unsure.

Doctor could be just mixing up - the components

of the condition, perhaps? If it is clear and your only question is whether it is chondral or chondro, I'd go with chondral...if the rest is not clear, then I don't know! I want to say it's synovial chondromatosis...
