“…[1,3] Ultrasonography may show villous hypertrophic structures projecting into the suprapatellar effusion. [3,4,7] Sonographic evaluation of the right knees in our cases revealed similar signs. We suggest that USG can be helpful in the evaluation regarding the extent and features of that joint disorder.…”

“…Synovial disorders that might cause swelling in the knees are as rare as benign and malignant tumors. [7,8] Lipoma arborescens is a rare intraarticular disorder characterized by villous lipomatous proliferation of the synovial membrane. It is usually seen in adults between the ages of 30 and 50 years old, and it generally involves suprapatellar recess of the knee joint.…”

Lipoma arboresan (LA) sinovyal eklemler ve bursaların nadir benign bir lezyonudur. En sık tutulum yeri dizlerdir. Manyetik rezonans görüntüleme bulguları tipiktir. Çocuklardaki LA olgu sunumlarının sayısı, erişkinlere kıyasla oldukça azdır. Bu çalışmada, her iki dizde ağrı ve şişlik yakınması muayene edilen dokuz ve 15 yaşlarındaki iki kız kardeş sunuldu. Manyetik rezonans görüntülemede her iki çocuğun sağ dizinde LA için tipik özellikler gösterildi. Çocukluk çağındaki hastalarda sistemik tutulum olmadan mono/oligoartiküler efüzyon ve sinovyal hipertrofi varlığında, ayırıcı tanıda LA akla getirilmelidir. Manyetik rezonans görüntüleme, LA tanısında duyarlı bir yöntemdir.Anahtar sözcükler: Ailesel yatkınlık; juvenil oligoartrit; diz; lipoma arboresan; manyetik rezonans görüntüleme.Lipoma arborescens (LA) is a rare benign lesion of synovial joints and bursae. The knee is the most common site of the involvement. Magnetic resonance imaging findings are typical in the diagnosis. The number of case reports of LA in children is significantly lower compared to the adults. In this article, two nine-year-old and 15-year-old sisters who were examined for the complaints of bilateral pain and swelling in knees were presented. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated typical features of LA in the right knees of both children. Pediatric patients with mono/oligoarticular effusion and synovial hypertrophy without systemic involvement, LA should be considered in differential diagnosis. Magnetic resonance imaging is a sensitive modality in the diagnosis of LA.

“…23 LA has been treated by few authors with radiosynovectomy using yttrium-90 24 and chemosynovectomy with osmic acid. 25 There was no recurrence in both the cases. However these procedures cannot be recommended as standard procedure in the management of LA based upon single case reports.…”
