A plica is a synovial fold inside the knee joint that may become symptomatic following trauma. The authors diagnosed and excised 20 symptomatic plicae; after a mean follow-up period of 20 months 13 patients were free of symptoms, while six were unchanged or worse. Plica syndrome is not common, and careful assessment must be made to exclude other causes of pathologic knee conditions. The treatment of choice consists of excision of the entire plica to prevent recurrence of the symptoms.
滑膜皱襞是膝关节内的滑膜褶，创伤后可能出现症状。作者诊断并切除了20例有症状的滑膜皱襞；平均随访20个月后，13例患者无症状，6例无变化或症状加重。滑膜皱襞综合征并不常见，必须仔细评估以排除膝关节病理状况的其他原因。首选治疗方法是切除整个滑膜皱襞以防止症状复发。
