Abstract

Intra-articular fibroma of tendon sheath is a rare disease. To our knowledge, less than 20 cases have been reported in the literature, and none of them was a Chinese patient. In this case report, we present a Chinese patient with intra-articular fibroma of tendon sheath of the knee joint which was excised arthroscopically. We also summarized the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and subsequent management of intra-articular fibroma of tendon sheath.
