Synovial hemangioma is a benign vascular tumor. While mainly affecting the knee, it can also appear in other joints or tissues. The condition is very rare in children. A delay between debut and diagnosis due to its unspecific symptomatology is common. We report a case of a boy affected by an intra-articular synovial hemangioma of the knee with a debut at the early age of 10 months, the youngest reported in English literature.
