Background: Tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT) is a rare, locally aggressive tumor of the joints, bursa, and tendon sheath that can cause considerable pain and substantial morbidity. Although surgery is the primary treatment for patients with TGCT, surgical resection is associated with high rates of recurrence, particularly for patients with diffuse TGCT. Pexidartinib, a colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor inhibitor, is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of adult patients with symptomatic TGCT associated with severe morbidity or functional limitations and not amenable to improvement with surgery.

Extrapulmonary hyalinizing granuloma (EPHG) is a notably rare condition, representing an exaggerated chronic immune response to antigenic stimuli. This report presents the first documented case of intra-articular and tenosynovial EPHG with radiological evaluation and pathological confirmation in a 60-year-old man presenting with wrist pain and swelling. Imaging findings were relatively symmetric with marked distension of the distal radioulnar joints and extensor tendon sheaths with masses and nodules of various sizes surrounded by synovitis and accompanied by bony erosions.

Tenosynovial giant cell tumors (TGCTs) are benign histo-fibrocystic tumors originating from the synovium of joints, bursae, or tendon sheaths. They are categorized into localized and diffuse types, each with distinct clinical presentations and management approaches. The diffuse form, which is rare, generally affects a single joint and is characterized by joint swelling, pain, functional limitation, and often hemarthrosis.

Introduction: Nodular fasciitis is a rare, benign soft tissue lesion that can prove to be difficult to diagnose, especially when intra-articular.

Case Presentation: A 17-year-old female softball player presents with several year history of right knee pain and swelling initially attributed to patellar maltracking refractory to non-operative and operative management.

Management And Outcomes: Initial pathology suggested tenosynovial giant cell tumor; however, further tissue diagnosis revealed nodular fasciitis, which was eventually resected.

Pathology of intra-articular tumours and tumour-like lesions: pearls, pitfalls and rarities from a general surgical pathology practice.

Skeletal Radiol

Douglass Hanly Moir Pathology, 14 Giffnock Avenue, Macquarie Park, NSW, 2113, Australia.

Intra-articular tumours are uncommonly encountered in routine practice and may present diagnostic challenges to pathologists. Challenges unique to this site include distinction from more common reactive synovial conditions, which are far more common; histologic variability; superimposed reactive changes; and often, lack of provided clinicoradiological context. This article reviews the pathology of the synovial tumours and tumour-like lesions, including diagnostic pearls, pitfalls and rare entities.
