What is it about?

Synovial hemangioma is a benign soft-tissue tumor of vascular origin. Hemangioma only accounts for 1% of all bone lesions and is mostly an incidental finding among the primary skeletal tumors.

Why is it important?

A delay in diagnosis results in joint degeneration and osteoarthritic damage because of infiltrating tumor growth.

Perspectives

As radiography has limited diagnostic ability, synovial hemangiomas are difficult and challenging to identify on an outpatient basis. Histological examination and magnetic resonance imaging are extremely helpful
