Since intraosseous IPEH could not be considered from the clinical findings, the pathological diagnosis was the decisive factor. This report showed the world's first case of intraosseous IPEH with marked calcification. Similar to the calcification of intraosseous hemangiomas, we considered the possibility that, in IPEH, the thrombus may fibrosis and organize in concentric circles, causing necrosis at the center and resulting in calcification. TKA was performed on the degenerative knee joint with IPEH, and a good patient outcome was obtained.
