“…MR imaging displays a well-defined lobulated mass, attached to the tendinous sheath (Figs. 12, 13) [11,38,39,40,41,42,43,44). These lesions show a characteristic growth pattern with enveloping of the affected tendon [39].…”

“…Typically, affected tendons have normal low signal intensity in all sequences. The signal characteristics of GCTTS depend on the amount of hemosiderin deposition, but are basically identical to those of PVNS: intermediate to low signal on T1-weighted images and low signal on T2-weighted images [11,38,39,40,41,42,43,44) (Figs. 12, 13).…”

The clinical diagnosis of synovial tumors and tumorlike lesions is difficult, and radiographic findings may establish a confident diagnosis only in some cases. MR imaging has become the modality of choice in evaluating these lesions, because with it a presumptive diagnosis can be made in most cases. Our goal is to review the MR features of pigmented villonodular synovitis, giant-cell tumor of the tendon sheath, synovial chondromatosis, synovial hemangioma, lipoma arborescens, synovial cysts and synovial sarcoma, emphasizing those findings that suggest a specific diagnosis.

“…These appearances help to differentiate GCTTS from other solid soft-tissue tumors of the limbs, such as nerve-sheath tumors, hemangioma and soft-tissue sarcoma. 19,24 Moreover, tumor size and degree and extent around the phalanx can be accurately determined, which might affect the type of surgical approach used. 25 CT scanning was used to diagnose and to see the extent of osseous involvement in our patient and helped us to decide on the midlateral approach on ulnar side because intraosseous invasion was on the volar and ulnar borders of the phalanx.…”

“…There is debate as to whether the tumor is a true neoplasm or a pseudoneoplastic inflammatory response to soft-tissue trauma [1]. This hypervascular lesion arises from the synovium of the tendon sheath or synovial lining of joints or bursa and is characterized microscopically by synovial cells, histiocytes, multinucleated giant cells, inflammatory cells, macrophages, xanthoma cells, and collagen [1][2][3][4]. Both a localized and a diffuse form have been described.…”
