Plant thorn synovitis. Resolution following total synovectomy.

چکیده
Our experience of five children with chronic thorn synovitis indicates that removal of free thorn fragments and all the macroscopically abnormal synovium is required in order to achieve a complete cure. Four children required total synovectomy for diffuse proliferative synovitis and one needed partial synovectomy of the area immediately around the embedded thorn. Joint washouts and partial synovectomy were unsuccessful in children with diffuse synovitis. Careful review is required following removal of a thorn as fragments may be retained within the joint.

متن کاملArthroscopic treatment of localized and diffuse pigmented villonodular synovitis of the knee.
