Abstract

Hemangioma of synovium is a rare benign tumor that can arise from any surface lined by synovium. Intra-articular synovial hemangioma is most common in the knee joint. The diagnosis is difficult as the signs and symptoms are nonspecific. We hereby report a hitherto unreported case of synovial hemangioma of knee overlying posterior cruciate ligament, its MRI findings and discuss the appropriate management

Keywords

posterior cruciate ligament - hemangioma - synovium - knee
