Synovial hemangioma of the knee joint—A case report

Svend Boe

Open publisher page 19 citations

Abstract

At arthroscopy, a 22-year-old woman with repeated spontaneous hemarthrosis of the knee was found to have a synovial hemangioma, which was removed by arthrotomy. In cases of spontaneous hemarthrosis without abnormal bleeding tendency, arthroscopy is recommended to identify and, if possible, treat the cause of bleeding, as repeated bleedings may damage the joint.
