An intra-articular vascular malformation with a ganglion in a knee

Abstract

We report a case of an intra-articular vascular malformation occurring simultaneously with a ganglion in a knee joint. We believe this to be the first reported case of an intra-articular vascular malformation occurring simultaneously with a ganglion. The malformation was cauterized resulting in resolution of knee pain. We suggest that vascular malformations be considered in the differential diagnosis of knee pain.
