“…In adults, in which the etiology is mostly secondary and related to knee lesions, cysts are often linking the joint cavity. Common knee joint lesions include osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, meniscus tear and so on [3]. There are many synovial sacs in the popliteal fossa [4], which often communicates with the joint cavity.…”

Objective: The purpose of this study was to explore the clinical efficacy and security of the treatment of popliteal cyst through radiofrequency thermocoagulation (RFT) under ultrasound guidance. Methods: The clinical data of 35 patients with popliteal cyst, who were treated by RFT under ultrasound guidance from June 2019 to June 2020, were retrospectively analyzed. The Visual Analogue Scores (VAS) and the size of cyst before and after treatment were recorded at the first month, the third month, the sixth month. After six months, the recovery rate of Rauschning and Lindgren classification (R-L classification) level 0, 0 -I were counted. All the complications of the patients were observed. Results: 32 patients were followed up for six months. The scores and cyst sizes of each patient before and after the treatment were on a normal distribution curve. There was no significant difference in VAS scores before and after the treatment (P > 0.05). However, there was a significant difference in cyst sizes before and after the treatment (P < 0.05). Moreover, there was no significant difference in VAS scores and cyst sizes in each period after treatment (P > 0.05). According to the R-L classification in 6 months after treatment: the recovery rate of class 0 was 62.5% and class 0 -I level was 87.5%. There were no serious complications in the process. Conclusion: Treatment of popliteal cyst through RFT under ultrasound guidance is a simple, easy, reliable method that is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objectives Baker’s cyst (BC) is a complex complication of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), with a poor prognosis. This paper aimed to analyze the clinical features and risk factors for BC in patients with RA to assist clinicians in early warning and appropriate action. Methods The Clinical features of hospitalized RA patients with knee affected were analyzed retrospectively. The R software was used for the statistical analysis, while logistic regression analyses were used to determine independent risk factors. Results A total of 367 RA patients with knee affected were studied, and BC was diagnosis in 15.3% of them. The BC group exhibited a higher proportion of knee-only affected than the non-BC group (p < 0.05), while the attributes linked to disease activity exhibited no disparity. Logistic regression analyses selected two independent risk factors for BC: knee-only affected and anemia. 26.8% of patients with BC developed rupture, exhibiting a higher proportion of knee-only affected (p < 0.05), compared to those unruptured. Conclusions The occurrence and rupture of BC in RA patients were significantly related to local inflammation, but not to systemic one. Incorporating local treatment may be a more advantageous option compared to solely relying on systemic therapy.
