Popliteal Cyst
Popliteal cyst occurs in the back of the knee, the area known as the popliteal fossa.
It is really a symptom of other problems inside the knee which are causing excessive joint
fluid to form. Once the joint fluid is sufficient to cause pressure, the fluid pushes out
at the back of the knee where the capsule is thinnest.
