Abstract :

<p><span style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;, serif; font-size: 12pt;">Lipoma arborescens is a rare intra-articular lesion with diffuse replacement of subsynovial tissue by mature fat cells, producing villous transformation of the synovium giving rise to joint immobility and pain. The present study reports a case of twenty six years old male who presented with bilateral knee swellings. The etiology of this benign condition is unknown.</span>&nbsp;</p>
