It is a condition where the synovium (the joint lining) grows abnormally and can become inflamed and thickened. It is commonly discussed in orthopedics, sports medicine, rheumatology, radiology, and physical therapy when evaluating persistent knee swelling and pain. Many clinicians also group PVNS under the broader term **tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT)**."}
