A case of pigmented villonodular synovitis of the hip is presented. The delay between the onset of symptoms and the histopathologic confirmation of this condition generally accounts for the massive local bone invasion, frequently necessitating a total hip arthroplasty. Earlier diagnosis through arthroscopy and subsequent chemical synoviorthesis might reduce the need for more aggressive surgery and improve the prognosis of this rare condition.
本文报告一例髋关节色素沉着绒毛结节性滑膜炎。症状出现与该病组织病理学确诊之间的延迟通常是导致广泛局部骨侵犯的原因，这常常需要进行全髋关节置换术。通过关节镜检查及随后的化学滑膜切除术进行早期诊断，可能会减少更激进手术的必要性，并改善这种罕见疾病的预后。
