Aim: To describe the successful treatment of a Baker’s cyst in the setting of post-traumatic osteoarthritis using ultrasound-guided injection of platelet-rich plasma. Setting: Outpatient sports clinic. Patient: 29-year old male basketball player. Case description: The patient presented with 2-months history of right knee pain, 17 months after undergoing right knee anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery. Exam revealed medial joint line and medial collateral ligament tenderness with posterior knee swelling. After aspiration, a corticosteroid injection was administered with temporary symptom relief. Diagnostic ultrasound examination confirmed the Baker’s cyst. The patient then underwent two serial leukocyte-rich platelet-rich plasma injections into his right knee. Results: The patient reported complete resolution of pain and cyst size. Conclusion: Leukocyte-rich platelet-rich plasma may be considered as a treatment option for patients with Baker’s cysts in the setting of post-traumatic osteoarthritis.

Linear Regression Modeling

Objectives: The association between the severity of knee pain and the clinical and radiological findings can help to assess the severity of knee osteoarthritis. The present study aimed to assess the relationship between knee pain severity and clinical, radiological and ultra-sonographic findings in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Methods: We recruited 52 patients with primary osteoarthritis. Physical examination and ultrasonography were done. Plain radiography was done within 3 weeks of clinical examination. Results: The average age of participants was 59.27 ± 9.85 years. Using multivariable linear regression modeling, pain severity had no significant association with any of the covariates including epidemiological, clinical and ultrasound findings. The severity of clinical symptoms and stiffness was associated with the ultrasound finding of Baker’s cyst as well as with tenderness of internal compartment and suprapatellar effusion. In addition, the level of daily function remained to be associated with baker’s cyst in ultrasound assessment as well as with tenderness of internal compartment. Conclusion: Our study showed no association between ultra-sonographic, clinical or radiological findings and the level of knee pain; however, knee function, disability, and the level of quality of life are associated with some clinical and ultrasound evidences of knee osteoarthritis.

The Common

Baker’s cysts are usually located in the posteromedial side of the knee and seldom cause neuropathy. We describe the rare case of a 57-year-old woman with a popliteal cyst who presented with limping gait and pain in her lower leg. She was electronically diagnosed with common peroneal neuropathy and transferred to our pain clinic. On ultrasound examination, about 2.0 × 1.2 cm sized popliteal cyst was found to extend to the fibular head, compressing the common peroneal nerve. Therefore, ultrasound-guided aspiration of the cyst and a common peroneal nerve block were performed. Immediately after the procedure, the pain, dysesthesia, and limping gait were relieved. Although her pain and dysesthesia were relieved, she underwent the surgery because of limping gait. In this case, we found the Baker’s cyst, the cause of the common peroneal neuropathy, and treated it immediately by just simple ultrasound examination and aspiration.
