Pigmented villonodular synovitis of the elbow

Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery, 1998
Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is a monoarticular condition with a variable prognosis. The first account of it was given by Chassaignac in 1852. The condition was given its name by Jaffe in 1941. In separate studies Miller in 1982 and Flandry et al. in 1994 determined the overall incidence of PVNS varied between 1 and 3 per 1,000,000.

Radiosynovectomy in pigmented villonodular synovitis

Nuklearmedizin, 2000
Summary Background: Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVS) is a very rare disorder characterized by a slowly progressive benign proliferation of synovial tissue. As yet, the mainstay of its treatment has been surgical or athroscopic synovectomy. However, the relapse rates reported are relatively high, ranging between 8% and 46%.

Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis of Joints

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1982
In a series of 38 young adults with intra-articular pigmented villonodular synovitis, the joint predominantly affected was the knee. For early diagnosis of intra-articular pigmented villonodular synovitis, a high level of suspicion is necessary for patients with complaints of persistent pain or swelling in the knee, or erosive osteoarthritis of the hip

Tumefactive pigmented villonodular synovitis

The American Journal of Surgery, 1956
Abstract 1. 1. A case is presented of a diffuse proliferative synovial lesion of the knee. This lesion was intra- and extra-articular, and was of seven years' duration. 2. 2. The longevity of the lesion with no transition of cell structural changes other than that indicated by multiplicity of the cytologic pattern would classify this type ...
