Baker's cyst
Subject: Baker's cyst

A Baker's cyst, otherwise known as a popliteal cyst, is a benign swelling found behind the knee joint. It is named after the surgeon who first described it, Dr. William Morrant Baker (1839-1896).


There is a trend toward reducing the number of punctuation marks (which I personally think is promoting the illiteracy which is already rampant in this country), but in more than 20 years as a rad MT and a rad tech, I have never heard anything except Baker's cyst.
