Abstract
This is a rare case of involvement of knee joint by an arteriovenous m alformation. A nine year old girl had recurrent monoarticular pain and swelling of long duration and had been treated as juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. Angiographic and histological features suggested an arteri ovenous malformation of lower thigh with knee joint involvement.
