Abstract

|
|
Synovial hemangioma is a rare benign intraarticular tumor. Synovial hemangioma of the knee joint has unspecific symptoms, which are pain, limitation of motion and hemarthrosis, often seen as an internal derangement of the knee. A 24-year-old woman presented with intermittent joint effusion and pain of the left knee joint and physical examination revealed slight atrophy of the quadriceps and tenderness around lateral joint line of knee. The patient was performed arthroscopic surgery due to synovial hemangioma about 17-years ago. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed the synovial hemangioma from Hoffa fat pad to anterior aspect of lateral meniscus, and thus surgical treatment was planned. Arthroscopic excision was performed and additional lesion was observed in lateral gutter, suprapatellar pouch of the knee. The biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of synovial hemangiomas. After 3 year, the patient was completely asymptomatic and showed no signs of recurrence.
