A case of synovial hemangioma

Abstract

Synovial hemangioma is a rare lesion that most commonly involves the anterior compartment of the knee. It usually occurs in adolescents and presents as recurrent episodes of swollen knee and pain. A sixteen-year old female patient presented with complaints of swelling and pain in her left knee. Physical examination showed a painful mass in the inferolateral part of the patella. Plain radiographs were normal. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a lobular mass extending from the lower part of the patella to the infrapatellar fat pad. Pathologic examination of the excised specimen revealed proliferated vascular structures of varying caliber arising below the hypertrophied synovial tissue and extending to the deep layers. A diagnosis of synovial hemangioma was made. Following total excision, prognosis is usually excellent and recurrence is rare. No recurrences were detected during a follow-up period of 16 months.
