Abstract
Chronic Synovitis presents a diagnostic dilemma for clinicians and surgeons. In our study we investigated patients presenting with chronic synovitis of wrist joint with wrist arthroscopy. 8 out of 34 (23.53%) of cases were histologically positive for granulomas suggestive of tuberculosis. We were able to predict the etiology of the disease based on the arthroscopy findings.
