We report on a 19-year-old female patient who was
diagnosed with a complete suprapatellar plica syndrome. She
underwent arthroscopic excision of the plica. Postoperatively, there was complete resolution of the symptoms,
with return to sports activity. A complete suprapatellar plica
is a rare condition that separates the suprapatellar pouch
from the rest of the knee. Cases of symptomatic complete
suprapatellar plica should be managed with conservative
measures initially. If conservative therapy fails, surgical
arthroscopic excision is required.
