Arthroscopic treatment of pigmented villonodular synovitis of the knee.
Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is a rare disease, with multiple forms, anatomic sites, and treatment methods having been described. During a 10-year period, 14 patients, 7 male and 7 female, average age 35 years (range, 19 to 64 years) were treated for PVNS with arthroscopic partial or total synovectomy. Average follow-up was 42 months (range, 8 to 83 months). Twelve patients had diffu...

Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is a rare proliferative synovial disorder of uncertain etiology. Two forms of this disorder, a localized (LPVNS) and diffuse (DPVNS) form, are well differentiated. The therapy of choice for LPVNS is arthroscopic partial synovectomy with excision of the lesion. Total synovectomy, whether done arthroscopically or through an open arthrotomy, is the recommend...

Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is a benign aggressive disease that presents in either a localized (LPVNS) or diffuse (DPVNS) form. Arthroscopic synovectomy is the standard operative treatment for LPVNS, and when used to treat DPVNS, it is usually combined with an open posterior procedure. The purpose of this Technical Note is to report the technique that we have refined to allow for ar...
full textReview article: Open versus arthroscopic synovectomy for pigmented villonodular synovitis of the knee.
Studies published in MEDLINE between January 2010 and October 2013 were reviewed to compare open with arthroscopic synovectomy for pigmented villonodular synovitis of the knee in terms of rates of recurrence, complication, and osteoarthritis. 10 studies specifically on this topic were analysed; all were retrospective case reports, and thus level of evidence was low. Respectively after open and ...
full textDiffuse pigmented villonodular synovitis in knee joint: diagnosis and treatment☆
Pigmented villonodular synovitis is a rare proliferative condition of the synovium. Although the condition can present in any joint, the knee is the most commonly affected site. Despite being a benign condition, pigmented villonodular synovitis is often aggressive, with marked extra-articular extension in some cases. Monoarticular involvement occurs in two forms: localized and diffuse. The latt...

OBJECTIVE This retrospective observational study aims to explore the treatment procedure and outcomes of arthroscopically assisted radiotherapy for diffuse pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) of the knee joint. METHODS From September 2006 to August 2011, 28 diffuse PVNS patients were diagnosed and treated under arthroscopy. Twenty six underwent post-operative radiotherapy. All patients we...
