Area of Science:

  • Spine Surgery
  • Oncology
  • Neurology

  • Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) rarely affects the spine.
  • Radical surgical excision is the standard treatment for spinal PVNS.
  • Complete excision can be challenging due to vertebral body involvement, necessitating alternative management strategies.
