1 mar 2014 · The anatomy, function, and imaging of the popliteus and associated structures are described, with emphasis on MR imaging of the musculotendinous complex and associated pathologic conditions. The popliteus is a relatively small but unique muscle of the knee.
The tendon appears enlarged, diffusely infiltrated and intermediate in signal and erosive or cystic change may be present at the popliteal sulcus as in the initial case. Correlation with radiographs to assess for associated calcifications may be helpful.
12 mar 2013 · The axial (a) and sagittal (b) fat saturated proton density weighted images show a large multiseptated popliteal cyst (asterisks) emerging between the medial gastrocnemius tendon (black arrow) and the semimembranosus tendon (white arrow) and abutting the medial gastrocnemial muscle belly (GN).
Ultrasound-guided aspiration of symptomatic ganglion cysts about peripheral joints is a valuable and routinely performed therapeutic modality. Intratendinous and peritendinous ganglia involving the popliteus tendon are rare, with only 3 cases previously reported.
28 lip 2014 · Baker’s cyst, or popliteal cyst, is a fluid-filled mass that is a distention of a preexisting bursa in the popliteal fossa, most commonly the gastrocnemio-semimembranosus bursa.
