title: Villonodular synovitis in the dog: a report of four cases.
abstract: Four cases of villonodular synovitis were diagnosed by histopathology. All four dogs were treated medically with either carprophen or a combination of carprophen and glucosamine complex (Cosequin). In three of the dogs the condition improved significantly, and these dogs returned to normal workload.
