Abstract

An 18-year-old woman suffering from lateral patellar pain and subluxation underwent knee arthroscopy. The arthroscope revealed a bifurcate appearance of the popliteus tendon. This is the first report of this appearance at arthroscopy. The bifurcate popliteus tendon is a normal variant finding with no clinical significance.
