Case presentation We present a case of an atypical synovial hemangioma in a 12-year-old Caucasian boy with a diagnostic delay of 3 years. Conclusion It is important to know that synovial hemangioma mostly affects the knee joint showing recurrent bloody effusions without a history of trauma. If there are no intermittent effusions the diagnosis will be even more difficult. In cases of nonspecific symptoms and longstanding knee pain the diagnosis of a synovial hemangioma should also be considered in order to avoid diagnostic delay. Magnetic resonance imaging is the main diagnostic tool to evaluate patients with synovial hemangioma showing characteristic lace-like or linear patterns. Angiography can identify feeder vessels and offers the possibility of embolisation in the same setting. Surgical excision either done per arthroscopy or per arthrotomy is recommended as soon as possible to avoid the risk of damage to the cartilage. Introduction Hemangiomas of bone constitute 1 of all primary bone tumours. The soft tissue types are even less common and often arise in the skin and subcutaneous tissue. Muscle and synovial linings are less frequent sites of origin. Since the first case was described by Bouchut in 1856 fewer than 200 cases have been reported. Most cases have been the intra-articular and intermediate type of hemangio-hamartoma another form of vascular tumour of the leg representing an arteriovenous malformation which involves the synovia and causes intra-articular bleeding. Only a few of these have been
