Follow me on twitter: https://twitter.com/#!/DrEbraheim_UTMC Ganglion cyst of the cruciates can cause knee pain and can interfere with flexion and extension of the knee. The patient may complain of pain and tightness in the knee, especially with flexion of the knee. These cysts can be seen clearly on MRI. It is a benign, subcondylar, radiolucent lesion without degenerative arthritis. The most common locations are epiphysis of long bones, femoral head, proximal tibia, carpal bones, and the acetabulum. They are typically seen on x-rays as a well demarcated, solitary radiolucent lesion with sclerotic margins and no communication with the joint can be seen. MRI will show the solitary uni or multilocular lesion which has a sclerotic rim, and the bone scan is usually not “hot”. The cyst can compress the common peroneal nerve. Treatment is usually decompression of the cyst and the nerve. You may consider fusion of the proximal tibiofibular joint, especially if the cyst reoccurs after excision.
