Plica Syndrome a case of anterior knee pain

Abstract

Plica syndrome is an uncommon but clinically important condition that has come into prominence during the last decade with the wider use of the arthroscope. Any trauma can cause a normal synovial fold to become symtomatic. lts signficance lies in the fact that it simulates the more important and common internal derangements of the knee, especially the meniscus lesions, patellofemoral subluxation and chondromalacia patellae. For this reason, a careful assessment must be made to exclude other causes of anterior knee pain. Once its diagnosis has been made, treatment is simpIe and a dramatic recovery follows. lts importance is even more pronounced in the athlete. To our knowledge, no detailed reports on the subject have taken place in teh Turkish Orthopedic literature and this has Ied the author to make an extensive review of the current literature.
