Popliteal masses masquerading as popliteal cysts.
Abstract
Two popliteal swellings, thought initially to be synovial cysts associated with arthritic knees, were found to be unrelated tumours of serious significance. In the presence of neurological signs or a large cyst in association with a noninflammed knee joint a disease other than a simple synovial cyst should be considered.
