Synovial cysts on the lateral side of the knee can cause pain, limitation of joint mobility, compression of the neighboring neurovascular structures, rupture leading to compartment syndrome, infection, erosion of adjacent bone, and iliotibial band friction syndrome. Open resection is commonly performed for symptomatic cysts. We describe an alternative, endoscopic approach to cyst resection. This has the advantages of minimally invasive surgery of smaller wounds, better cosmesis, and less surgical trauma.
膝关节外侧的滑膜囊肿可导致疼痛、关节活动受限、压迫邻近的神经血管结构、破裂导致骨筋膜室综合征、感染、侵蚀邻近骨质以及髂胫束摩擦综合征。对于有症状的囊肿,通常采用开放切除术。我们描述了一种囊肿切除的替代方法,即内镜手术。这种方法具有微创手术伤口小、美容效果好和手术创伤小的优点。
