The effects of radiosynoviorthesis in pigmented villonodular synovitis of the knee
2019
Introduction
Tenosynovial giant-cell tumor also known as pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVS) is a benign but aggressive synovial proliferative disease most often affecting the knee joint. The mainstay of therapy is surgical resection. Due to a high rate of local recurrence, radiosynoviorthesis (RSO) is used as an adjuvant method in many cases. The aim of this study was to compare local recurrence (LR) rates after surgical synovectomy with and without adjuvant RSO.
