Pellegrini-Stieda disease is a condition occasionally observed on routine radiographic examinations of the knee. A literature survey revealed little in the way of explanation or therapeutic management of this disorder. An overview of this condition with an emphasis on etiological theory and treatment is offered along with two classic radiographic examples.
