Preface

Synovial cyst arises as a consequence of herniation of synovial lining through the joint capsule. Generally, joints of proximal and distal extremities are incriminated. Haemorrhage within the synovial cyst may engender a mass-like lesion.

Synovial cyst arising within the popliteal fossa is additionally denominated as popliteal cyst or Baker’s cyst. Cutaneous metaplastic synovial cyst commonly arises due to localized trauma to abutting soft tissue and is layered by metaplastic cuboidal or pseudostratified columnar synovial epithelium.
