First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at whether analyzing synovial tissue can help doctors better manage pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS), a rare joint disease that causes pain and joint damage. Researchers will collect tissue samples from 30 patients through biopsy or surgery to assess quality and patient acceptance. The goal is to understand the disease better and see if tissue analysis can guide personalized treatment.
