Abstract
Pigmented villonodular synovitis is a benign proliferative disorder of
the synovium of uncertain cause. It may involve tendon sheaths, bursa
e, or joints, the latter occurring as diffuse involvement or a localiz
ed nodule. This article reviews the clinical features of the disorder
and the imaging features of the disease, concentrating on the findings
and utility of MR imaging.
