Arthroscopic excision of giant cell tumor of tendon sheath in the knee

Abstract

Giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath is a form of villonodular synovitis. It is rarely seen in large joints such as the knee. The lesion must be completely excised to prevent recurrence. All reported cases in the literature the nodules were removed by open surgery. We hereby report a case, in which a giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath has been extirpated totally with arthroscopic method from the knee joint.
