Abstract
We report a primary synovial osteochondromatosis in a 6-year-old male with a 1-year history of shoulder pain and stiffness. The patient underwent surgical treatment, resulting in significant improvement in range of motion and functional status. Primary synovial osteochondromatosis of the shoulder is a rare benign condition that can result in shoulder pain, stiffness, and locking. MRI helps identify these lesions within the affected joint. Removal of loose bodies often alleviates symptoms and allows for improved range of motion with satisfactory results.
