Dissection and rupture of popliteal cysts occur commonly. We describe a case of a 13-year-old girl with polyarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis who presented with anterior tibial swelling and dropped foot. She was found to have dissecting popliteal cyst resulting in anterior compartment syndrome.
