Abstract
Lipoma arborescens is a rare entity, the unilateral form affecting the knee is the most common, with a predilection for suprapellar recess. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the examination of choice showing multiple villous proliferation of the synovium and fat-like cells, with a fatty signal on all sequences. Treatment by open or arthroscopic synovectomy offers the best outcomes.
