Abstract:
We report a 12-year-old girl who had pigmented villonodular synovitis with extensive bony erosion around the left sacroiliac joint. The lesion mimicked a primary bone tumor clinically and radiologically, but was a typical pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS). The sacroiliac joint is an unusual site for PVNS, especially in the pediatric age group.
