Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is a rare proliferative process of the synovium
which most commonly affects the knee and occurs in either a localised (LPVNS) or a diffuse …

Purpose We aimed to determine the rate of local recurrence, the rate of postoperative
complications, and the functional outcome at final follow-up of surgical and nonsurgical …

Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) represents an uncommon benign neoplastic
process that may involve the synovium of the joint diffusely or focally (PVNS) or that may …

Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) has a high but variable recurrence rate. Prior
studies do not compare recurrence-free survival (RFS) for various surgical approaches or …

BACKGROUND: The treatment of diffuse tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT) requires
extensive surgical resection of the hypertrophic synovium and multiple soft tissue masses …

Giant cell tumours (GCT) of the synovium and tendon sheath can be classified into two
forms: localised (giant cell tumour of the tendon sheath, or nodular tenosynovitis) and diffuse …

Giant cell tumors deriving from synovium are classified into a localized (GCT of tendon
sheath; GCT‐TS) and diffuse form (diffuse‐type GCT, Dt‐GCT). We propose a …

We retrospectively reviewed 30 patients with a diffuse-type giant-cell tumour (Dt-
GCT)(previously known as pigmented villonodular synovitis) around the knee in order to …

Background: Simple resection of diffuse pigmented villonodular synovitis of the ankle joint is
associated with local recurrence rates as high as 50%. Thus, adjuvant treatment modalities …

Purpose We aimed to ascertain the feasibility of crowdsourcing via Facebook for medical
research purposes; by investigating surgical, oncological and functional outcome and …
