Abstract

The cause of knee osteoarthritis (OA) and knee pain associated with OA is not well understood. Periarticular cystic lesions and bursae around the knee are among the most common morphologic features identified on MRI in the setting of OA. Despite widespread association of these lesions with knee OA and their inclusion in semiquantitative MRI scoring assessment systems for knee OA, the role that these lesions play in the development of knee pain and OA remains uncertain. In this discussion, we review the cystic lesions and bursae most commonly associated with OA of the knee, examine their relation and role in whole organ imaging assessments of OA, and present the literature investigating the associations of periarticular cysts and cyst-like lesions with knee pain and OA.
