Objective: The aim of the work was to demonstrate the effectiveness and safety of ultrasonographic guided aspiration performed with corticosteroid injection intra-lesional for ruptured Baker cysts (BCs). Methods: Single-center retrospective study that included 42 patients with knee joint disorder associated with ruptured BCs were treated by ultrasonographic guided aspiration of fluid from the cyst and different points from the calf then intra-lesional injection of corticosteroids once or twice, 1 week apart. Follow up were done weekly until complete resolution of symptoms. Visual analog scale (VAS) and Rauschning-Lindgren and Lysholm Knee Scoring Scales (RLC) were used for assessment. Results: Clinical parameters (VAS and RLC) improved significantly in all patients at both post injection evaluation visits (1 week and 12 weeks). Ultrasonographic features improved significantly with complete disappearance of free fluid in the calf in 35 (83.3%) cases 1 week after the injection, and in 41 (97.6%) after 12 weeks. As regards BCs only 4 (9.5%) cases showed complete disappearance after 1 week and there was recurrent BCs in 38 (90.5%) cases which required reaspiration. While after 12 weeks, BCs were completely disappeared in 23 (54.8%) cases, most of the relapsed BCs were complex BCs. No side effects were reported in all cases. Conclusion: Ultrasonographic guided aspiration followed by injection of corticosteroids intra-lesional is an efficient and safe method for managing ruptured BCs. |
