          Abstract

          Cysts and cystic-appearing lesions around the knee are common and can be divided into true cysts (synovial cysts, bursae, ganglia, and meniscal cysts) and lesions that mimic cysts (hematomas, seromas, abscesses, vascular lesions, and neoplasms). The specific anatomic location of the cystic lesion often permits the correct diagnosis. In difficult cases, identifying a cystic mass in an atypical location and/or visualizing internal solid contrast enhancement on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) should raise concern for a neoplasm and the need for further evaluation and intervention.

          Soft-tissue tumors and tumorlike lesions: a systematic imaging approach.

          Annie Wu, Mary G Hochman (2009)
          Soft-tissue lesions are frequently encountered by radiologists in everyday clinical practice. Characterization of these soft-tissue lesions remains problematic, despite advances in imaging. By systematically using clinical history, lesion location, mineralization on radiographs, and signal intensity characteristics on magnetic resonance images, one can (a) determine the diagnosis for the subset of determinate lesions that have characteristic clinical and imaging features and (b) narrow the differential diagnosis for lesions that demonstrate indeterminate characteristics. If a lesion cannot be characterized as a benign entity, the lesion should be reported as indeterminate, and the patient should undergo biopsy to exclude malignancy. (c) RSNA, 2009.

              MRI features of cystic lesions around the knee.

              Eddie Chung, Ali Guermazi, Shanu Roemer … (2008)
              Cystic lesions around the knee are a diverse group of entities, frequently encountered during routine MRI of the knee. These lesions range from benign cysts to complications of underlying diseases such as infection, arthritis, and malignancy. MRI is the technique of choice in characterizing lesions around the knee: to confirm the cystic nature of the lesion, to evaluate the anatomical relationship to the joint and surrounding tissues, and to identify associated intra-articular disorders. We will discuss the etiology, clinical presentation, MRI findings, and differential diagnosis of various cystic lesions around the knee including meniscal and popliteal (Baker's) cysts, intra-articular and extra-articular ganglia, intra-osseous cysts at the insertion of the cruciate ligaments and meniscotibial attachments, proximal tibiofibular joint cysts, degenerative cystic lesions (subchondral cyst), cystic lesions arising from the bursae (pes anserine, prepatellar, superficial and deep infrapatellar, iliotibial, tibial collateral ligament, and suprapatellar), and lesions that may mimic cysts around the knee including normal anatomical recesses. Clinicians must be aware about the MRI features and the differential diagnosis of cystic lesions around the knee to avoid misdiagnosis.
