title: Pigmented villonodular synovitis of multiple tarsal bones. A case report.
abstract: PVNS because of its indolent symptomatology can present with confounding clinical, radiographic, and pathologic findings. The case study detailed in this article demonstrates the need in most cases to excise clean margins with the involved tissue for better pathologic diagnosis. Currently, the patient described in this article has been followed for over 2 years with no recurrence and has a weight-bearing limb.
