Tenosynovial giant cell tumour, historically known as pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS), is a rare benign proliferative and inflammatory disease arising from synovia of joints, bursae, or tendon sheaths. Based on a 2017 Dutch study, the global incidence has been estimated to be 43 cases of TGCT per 1 million people in the general population. For localised TGCT, 39 cases per 1 million are estimated, whereas for diffuse TGCT, 4 cases per 1 million are estimated [3,4].
