Abstract :Lipoma arborescens is a rare benign lesion characterized by villous lipomatous proliferation of the synovium, most commonly affecting the knee joint and sometimes associated with chronic inflammatory arthropathies. A 47-year-old man with a ten-year history of psoriatic arthritis treated with prednisolone, methotrexate, and leflunomide presented with a three-month history of left knee pain, swelling, and limited motion. Ultrasonography showed diffuse suprapatellar effusion with hyperechoic villous synovial projections, and magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated hypertrophic proliferative synovium containing lipomatous areas with homogeneous enhancement. Recurrent effusion led to synovectomy, and histopathology confirmed synovial lipomatosis. Postoperative rehabilitation achieved full joint range of motion.Keywords : Lipoma arborescens, Psöriatik artrit, Diz eklemi
