- Abstract
Intra-articular ganglion cysts of the knee are extremely rare within the pediatric population. To our knowledge, only seven case reports have been published in the medical literature identifying pediatric patients with intra-articular cysts of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Intra-articular cysts of the knee are a rare cause of knee discomfort and mechanical symptoms such as locking of the knee. To our knowledge, up until now the youngest patient reported in the medical literature with an intra-articular ganglion cyst of the ACL was a 7-year-old boy.
