Tenosynovial chondromatosis in the hand.

Abstract
Eight cases of tenosynovial chondromatosis in the hand were compared with twelve cases collected from the literature and available data on eleven cases showed that in three there were recurrences. No patients had metastatic lesions during a follow-up period averaging 7.8 years. Based on these data, we concluded that a moderately radical en bloc excision is adequate treatment for tenosynovial chondromatosis in the hand.
