Abstract:
A meniscal cyst is not common disease of knee joint. Many cases have been reported but its cause and origin are still pooly understood. We experienced two cases of the cysts on the lateral meniscus. They were treated by arthroscopic partial menisectomy and extraarticular excision of the cyst. The good results were obtained.
