We report a chronic Morel-Lavallée lesion around the knee in a competitive high schooler softball player, successfully treated with video-assisted endoscopic debridement. Endoscopic surgery is a viable option to treat Morel-Lavallée lesions in active patients who seek a rapid return to sport. The potential advantages of an endoscopic treatment would be a faster healing process and an earlier return to motion and function due to a less morbid and more cosmetic surgical approach.
