Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis (PVNS) is a rare condition. MRI is highly sensitive and specific for PVNS, correlating well with histology and aiding preoperative assessment.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Radiology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis (PVNS) is an uncommon tumoral-like condition.
  • Limited MRI studies are available, with debated etiologies.
  • Understanding imaging characteristics is crucial for diagnosis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the diagnostic utility of MRI in PVNS.
  • To correlate MRI findings with histological features.
  • To compare MRI's contribution with other imaging modalities.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of five PVNS cases.
  • Comparison with existing literature data.
  • Detailed review of MRI sequences and gadolinium enhancement.

Main Results:

  • MRI demonstrates heterogeneous low signal intensity on T2-weighted sequences, consistent with hemosiderin deposition.
  • MRI findings correlate with synovial hyperplasia and evolving vascularity.
  • Gadolinium enhancement was observed in two cases.

Conclusions:

  • MRI is highly sensitive and specific for PVNS, offering remarkable diagnostic value.
  • MRI findings correlate well with histological characteristics and disease evolution.
  • Clinical and plain film findings are essential for differential diagnosis, with MRI recommended post-plain films for preoperative assessment.
