ABSTRACT
A hemangioma in the knee joint of a 13-year-old girl was diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging. There was pain and a tender localized swelling around to the patellar tendon. Arthroscopy verified the diagnosis but did not allow visualization of the full extent of the tumor. After arthroscopic excision of the associated hypertrophic medial plica, a miniarthrotomy was done. The tumor was attached to the periph-ery of the anterior horn of the medial meniscus, the anterior tibial plateau, and the fat pad. Its origin was from the venous plexus just below the anterior lip of the central tibial plateau. The patient was asympto-matic one and a half years after surgery. If the case is not amenable to arthroscopic surgery, open excision through miniarthrotomy ensures complete removal of the hemangiomas without recurrence.
