Comments

An 8-year-old-boy developed a 2 cm nontender compressible cyst on the lateral aspect of his right knee 4 months ago. Magnetic resonance imaging indicated a fluid filled lesion on the late oal aspect of the iliotibial band. The cyst resolved following aspiration and multiple punctures to the cystic wall.
