“…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.

“…L'IRM a un rôle prépondérant dans le diagnostic étiologique, elle permet de faire le diagnostic différentiel avec le sarcome des parties molles qui produit un signal d'intensité égale ou supérieure à celle de la graisse en T2, alors que les tumeurs à cellules géantes ont un signal entre le muscle et la graisse en T2 [13]. De plus, les tumeurs à cellules géantes se rehaussent après injection de Gadolinium du à la prolifération des capillaires dans le stroma, ce qui les différencient des kystes synoviaux [14]. Le traitement des tumeurs à cellules géantes est essentiellement chirurgical et repose sur l'excision complète de la tumeur avec un risque de récidive moyen de 26,5% durant les deux premières années [15].…”

“…Die Signalintensität ist die der Muskulatur sehr ähnlich. Die T2-gewichteten Sequenzen sind gewöhnlich eher hypointens in Relation zur Muskulatur (10 (3). Als histopathologische Differentialdiagnosen sind Fremdkörpergranulome, nekrobiotische Granulome, Fibrome der Sehnenscheide, Synovialzellsarkome, Tenosynovitiden bei rheumatoider Arthritis und extraskelettale Chondrome abzugrenzen (6,12).…”

A well-localized nodular mass near on a tendon is often the first clinical sign of a nodular tenosynovitis or so-called tenosynovial giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath. We report three cases of this rare tumor localized at the lower extremity, in correlation with clinical, radiographic and intraoperative findings. After the pathologic diagnosis was made, the patient in the first case decided not to have the tumor resected. This patient's postoperative course continues uneventfully without expansion of the tumor. In the second and third case, a surgical intervation was performed but both developed a local recurrence. A second operation with partial resection of the tendon was successfully performed. To the last follow-up 12 and 24 months after revisions, there were no signs of local recurrence. The review of the literature shows that treatment modalities for such lesions range from excisional biopsy to radiation therapy. The authors present their own experience with the MRI diagnosis and the therapy. Using well-defined histopathologic criteria, marginal resection is the treatment of choice. To prevent a local recurrence, partial resection of the tendon should be done during the primary surgery.
