We present a case report of a rare synovial hemangioma of the knee. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated typical signal characteristics and enhancement. Histologic findings were confirmatory. Imaging characteristics, differential diagnoses and classification are discussed. A review of the relevant literature is provided.

The present study was a retrospective single-center study. A total of 81 patients diagnosed with metastatic soft tissue sarcoma were included who received pazopanib therapy. Clinical data, including age at diagnosis, histological subtype, treatments received before pazopanib, number of metastatic sites at the time of initiation of treatment, progression-free survival and overall survival time under pazopanib treatment, side effects and response evaluation in follow-up imaging after initiation of pazopanib therapy, were recorded.

Synovial haemangioma is a rare benign entity, most common in children and adolescents. These tumours can extensively infiltrate joint structures and periarticular soft tissues, making management challenging. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has a key role in diagnosis and therapeutic planning.

Purpose: Survival of patients with metastatic sarcoma remains poor, and there is a pressing need for new therapies. Most sarcoma subtypes are not responsive to immune checkpoint inhibition alone. Lenvatinib, a multireceptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting tumor vasculature, has an immunomodulatory activity that contributes to its antitumor effects.

Article Synopsis
  • Synovial hemangioma is a rare, benign vascular malformation in the knee that can be easily misdiagnosed due to vague symptoms.
  • A 7-year-old boy experienced chronic knee pain and swelling for over 3 years before imaging revealed the condition, leading to successful surgical treatment.
  • Early diagnosis and en-bloc excision of synovial hemangioma are crucial to avoid recurrence and ensure positive outcomes in patients.
