    Author: Rajakulasingam R, Murphy J, Badreddine I, James S, Botchu R.
    Journal: Iowa Orthop J; 2019; 39(2):73-75. PubMed ID: 32577111.
    Abstract:
    Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis (PVNS) of the shoulder is rare. We present a patient with locally recurrent tonsillar squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and newly identified soft tissue lesion of the right shoulder exhibiting similar focal FDG-PET CT uptake. Biopsy demonstrated features consistent with pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS). We discuss imaging features and describe a ' two needle,' coaxial biopsy technique.
