Recurrent intraarticular knee hemangiomas: A case report ☆

Intra-articular hemangioma is a rare condition with only around 200 cases reported in the literature. MRI is the investigation of choice and arthroscopy has got a definitive role in the treatment. Arthroscopy may have to be combined with open surgery if the feeder blood vessels are extra-articular. We performed a complete resection, after arthroscopic examination in an 18-year-old girl presented with a recurrent intra-articular hemangioma. At 18 months follow up there was no evidence of recurrence.
