Hypertrophied medial parapatellar plica: a case of a medial plica anatomical variation with insertion to the inter-meniscal ligament in an adolescent athlete treated arthroscopically
ConclusionsThis study presented a rare anatomical variation of a hypertrophied medial parapatellar plica with atypical course in the medial patellofemoral compartment and insertion into the inter-meniscal ligament. In combination with a medial meniscus tear led to a locked knee. Arthroscopic medial meniscus repair and plica excision resulted in complete resolution of symptoms.
