References For Children with PVNS


I've been working on finding childhood cases of pvns for a few weeks now and wanted to post some of my findings.  My hope is that this will help with your individual research into the different types and ages of childhood PVNS. 

Numerous incidents of PVNS occurrence within the pediatric population have been well documented, yet it has been stated that PVNS occurs primarily between the ages of 20-50. As I reviewed articles with the terms infant, pediatric, adolescent and teenage populations, I found the following references. Based on a meta-analysis of reports between 1968 and 2007, the age range was found to be between 8 months and 17 years.

    I was not diagnosed until I was 19, but my pain and locking started when I was 11. They believe that is when my pvns started growing. I am now 38 and I have had 4 open synovectomies, a hip replacement, a hip replacement revision and I need a second revision because my stem is loose and apparently my tumor is back.
    I feel for these children, they are more then likely in for a very long battle.
