The surgical outcome and recurrence rate of tenosynovial giant cell tumor in the elbow: a literature review

Tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TSGCT) is a rare proliferative disorder of the synovium. Because of its aggressive nature and recurrence potential, treatment of TSGCT involves surgical resection with or without synovectomy. There is currently a paucity of literature describing the surgical management of TSGCT at the elbow. The aim of this study was to evaluate clinical outcomes and recurrence rates following open and arthroscopic excision of TSGCT in the elbow.
