Imaging Studies for Joint Assessment
• Plain radiograph• Arthrocentesis/Arthrogram• CT• MRI
– Suggest process– Extent
• Biopsy – tissue diagnosis

Prior Dx: Degenerative Joint Disease

Is this a primary or secondary process?

Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis the basics - PVNS
• “Pigmented” - contains hemosiderin• “Villonodular” - appearance of gross
specimen• Proliferative disorder of synovium• Single joint

Our Patient: Open Biopsy – Definitive Diagnosis
• Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis
39
Amy GillisGillian Lieberman, MD
Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis PVNS
• Non malignant• Proliferative disorder• Unknown cause
– Infection vs neoplasm– Clonality suggests neoplasm
• Entire synovium: joints, tendons, bursa• Single joint
40
Amy GillisGillian Lieberman, MD
PVNS
• 1/500,000 per year• Age 20-45• Knee – 80%• Uncommonly > 1 joint• Tendon and bursa involvment
• Pain and swelling– Intermittent, often long standing
41
Amy GillisGillian Lieberman, MD
PVNS - Pathology
• Proliferation of synovium
• Brownish villi

PVNS - Histology
• Fibrous stroma• Hemosiderin deposition• Histiocytic infiltrate• Giant cells

PVNS – Radiographic Features
• Soft tissue swelling – 80%• Bony destruction• Joint space narrowing
– Later in disease– 70-75% of hip cases
• Subchondral cysts– 95% of hip cases
• No calcifications

PVNS – MRI Features
• Low –intermediate signal intensity on PD, T1 and T2 weighted images– Hemosiderin deposition
• Hyperplastic synovium– Lobulated mass
• Bone erosions• Bone density preserved

PVNS – Treatment Options
• Synovectomy– Local recurrence (45%)
• Radiation therapy
• Arthroplasty

Patient 5 Synovectomy Post Treatment
A synovectomy was performed.
Anterior space free of disease but PVNS remains posteriorly. MRI should be obtained preop for surgical planning.

Our Patient
Discussion underway weighing advantages of hip replacement versus synovectomy
