| Abstract: | Intra-articular ganglion cysts of the knee joint are rare. Percutaneous aspiration of ganglion cysts of the knee, which has both diagnostic and therapeutic value, has been described, but usually under guidance by computed tomography (CT). We describe ultrasound-guided aspiration of posterior cruciate ligament cysts in two patients.
