Description
Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS), also known as tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT), is a rare proliferative disease of the synovial tissue that most commonly affects large joints such as the knee, hip, and shoulder in young individuals.1,2 PVNS can broadly be categorized into two types: localized PVNS (LPVNS) and diffuse PVNS (DPVNS), with the localized form being a mass within the synovium and the diffuse form involving the entire synovium.2,3 This rare condition has an incidence rate of 1.8 per million and is often misdiagnosed as arthritic disease. Early diagnosis is crucial as PVNS is often aggressive, and recurrence rates in the diffuse type have been reported to be as high as 46%.
