  • Title: Fasciitis-like proliferation in the knee joint.
    Author: Soejima T, Murakami H, Tanaka N, Sato K, Nagata K, Sugita Y.
    Journal: Arthroscopy; 2003 Apr; 19(4):E33. PubMed ID: 12671608.
    Abstract:
    We describe the case of fasciitis-like proliferation in the knee joint in a 52-year-old man. The polypoid lesion developed from the synovial joint capsule around the quadriceps tendon and was impinging on the patellofemoral joint. Histologic and immunohistochemical studies revealed a myofibroblastic proliferation similar to nodular fasciitis. Until now, only 3 other cases have been reported in the English and Japanese language literature.
