plica formation
Explanation:
Plica syndrome is a pathological condition secondary to inflammation. Plicae around the knee are common and generally asymptomatic.
There are 2 theories regarding the embryological development of the knee and the subsequent formation of plicae.
It is proposed that incomplete resorption of mesenchymal tissue and failure of cavitation lead to plica formation. https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/230949901101900...
