Abstract

The gelatinous fluid within a ganglion is rich in hyaluronic acid and other mucopolysaccharides, and the lesion itself is surrounded by a dense network of collagen fibres and fibrocytes. By restoring knee stability, the procedure aims to enhance the patient’s quality of life. Historically, individuals who underwent anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgery were able to resume their prior level of athletic involvement in 75%–90% of cases. ACL ganglion cysts are associated with serious clinical symptoms. Some people’s discomfort and stiffness from immobility due to large ganglia prohibit them from fully extending. Such individuals should have an arthroscopy or a computed tomography (CT) scan to decompress the ganglion, which offers immediate relief. ACL surgeries are becoming more and more common, and ganglion cysts may be present in individuals who have pain at the extremes of both flexion and extension has a clinical history. Radiologists must be conversant with these therapies and the adverse effects that go with them. While arthroscopic treatment offers quick discomfort alleviation without compromising ligament integrity, when it comes to radiological diagnostics, nothing beats magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). With an MRI, any other relevant intraarticular abnormalities may be ruled out. Safe CT scan-guided suction was used to successfully cure this patient’s ACL ganglion cyst symptoms.
