Synovial folds or plicae are the result of incomplete or partial resorption of the synovial membranes during fetal development of the knee. The arthroscopic view shows a medial patellar plica, which has been noted in 5% to 55% of all individuals but becomes symptomatic in only a small number of patients. Symptoms may include crepitus, pain, snapping, and swelling and often respond to nonsurgical management.
