ABSTRACT

Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is a benign proliferation of the synovial membrane of joints, bursae and tendon sheaths, with hemosiderin deposits. The knee is the joint most commonly affected. Magnetic resonance is the suitable imaging study for the diagnosis, as it provides useful information to establish the appropriate treatment.
