Lateral meniscal cysts are usually small asymptomatic lesions, and to find a large cyst with extensive bony changes arising from this cyst is exceedingly rare. These changes are usually erosive defects of the tibia. Dull pain with an associated mass are classical findings. A 47-year-old man developed a symptomatic lateral meniscal cyst that eroded a large part of the lateral tibial plateau. Arthroscopy and arthrotomy with cyst excision was required in this case and led to the amelioration of his symptoms.
外侧半月板囊肿通常是无症状的小病变，而发现一个由该囊肿引起广泛骨质改变的大囊肿极为罕见。这些改变通常是胫骨的侵蚀性缺损。伴有肿块的钝痛是典型表现。一名47岁男性出现了有症状的外侧半月板囊肿，该囊肿侵蚀了外侧胫骨平台的很大一部分。本例需要进行关节镜检查和切开囊肿切除术，术后症状得到改善。
