A case of very rare synovial hemangioma of the right knee joint is presented. The duration of disease is for fifteen years. A hemangioma about 6X7X1cm in dimension has been found to be originated from lateral capsular synovium just above lateral meniscus and just anterior to lateral collateral ligament. The joint space was occupied with pedunculated mass. The complete excision could be done. The end result is good.

The disease Blount called tibia vara in 1937, is characterized by a failure of growth localized to the postero-medial part of the upper tibial metaphysis and epiphysis. The growth of the epiphyseal cartilage as well as that of the metaphysis and the epiphysis is disturbed, with consequent angulation of the tibia at the upper epiphysis which may, in untreated cases, produce bizarre deformities. Blount described two different types of tibia vara, an infantile type and an adolescent type. Presenting case is an adolescent type. He is 11 year old boy. The deformed tibia is corrected by osteotomy.
