ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Tenosynovial giant cell tumor, previously known as pigmented villonodular synovitis, is a benign low-grade fibrohistiocytic proliferation with hemosiderin deposits in synovial joints. Mostly affecting the knee, it can also manifest in other synovial joints, infrequently also in the wrist. Tenosynovial giant cell tumor typically causes intense radionuclide uptake in all phases in planar bone scintigraphy, making a differentiation from other bone tumors or osteomyelitis difficult, especially in cases associated with extensive bone destruction. We present a case of an unusually advanced and extended tenosynovial giant cell tumor of the wrist in bone scintigraphy, SPECT/CT, radiograph, and MRI.
