Haemangioma of Knee Joint: A Case Report

چکیده
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND Hemagioma arising in the knee is a rare cause of knee swelling. The diagnosis frequently is delayed for long. METHODS We are presenting the case report of a 12 year old male child who had a swelling on anteromedial knee which remained undiagnosed for more than 1 year. Patient had all baseline blood investigations and plain radiograph of knee which were normal. He also had got his knee aspirated which yielded only blood. CONCLUSION The aim of presenting this case report is to create awareness about the possibility of a hemangioma arising from a joint which although rare should be kept as a differential diagnosis. KEY WORDS Haemangioma,knee joint,Swelling.
