We report the case of an 11-year-old child who presented with knee pain and moderate limp associated with knee flexum, without trauma history. Radiographic investigations including a magnetic resonance imaging showed a large cyst that seemed to have developed anteriorly from the anterior cruciate ligament, causing the loss of terminal extension, mimicking a cyclops syndrome-like of the knee. Knee arthroscopy with debridement of the cyst was performed, and the patient quickly recovered his range of motion. Histological analysis confirmed a synovial cyst in accordance with arthroscopic and radiological findings.
This case is interesting because of the rare occurrence of ganglion cysts in children.
我们报告了一例 11 岁儿童的病例，该儿童出现膝关节疼痛和中度跛行，伴有膝关节屈曲，无外伤史。包括磁共振成像在内的影像学检查显示，一个大的囊肿似乎从前交叉韧带的前方发育而来，导致终末伸展丧失，类似于膝关节的独眼综合征。对囊肿进行了膝关节镜检查和清创术，患者很快恢复了活动范围。组织学分析证实了关节镜和影像学检查所见的滑膜囊肿。
这个病例很有趣，因为儿童中神经节囊肿的发生率很低。
