Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is a rare, benign neoplastic proliferation of the synovium.
  • While not malignant, PVNS can cause significant local destruction and disability by infiltrating surrounding soft tissues and bone.

Observation:

  • This article focuses on the diffuse form of PVNS.
  • Two cases of PVNS involving juxta-articular erosions of the calcaneocuboid joint are presented.

Findings:

  • The clinical presentation of diffuse PVNS, particularly its effect on the calcaneocuboid joint, is described.
  • Surgical intervention involving extensive bone curettage and resection of infiltrated intrinsic musculature was performed.

Implications:

  • Understanding the destructive potential of PVNS is crucial for early diagnosis and management.
