Baker's cysts are fluid-filled lumps or sacs that form behind your knee. This condition can be caused by a knee injury or a condition like arthritis. If you have a Baker's cyst, you may not experience any symptoms, have mild pain and discomfort, or feel severe pain. In severe cases, surgery may be an option.
A Baker's cyst is an enlarged bursa that is normally located between the medial head of the gastrocnemius and a capsular reflection of the semimembranosus, named oblique popliteal ligament.
It's named for William Morrant Baker, a 19th-century surgeon who first described the condition. The cyst is filled with synovial fluid, a viscous material that lubricates the knee joint, reducing friction among the components of the joint and allowing the knee to flex and extend freely.
The differential diagnosis of a Baker's cyst includes popliteal artery aneurysm, soft tissue tumors, meniscal cyst, hematoma, thromboemboli, and seroma. The imaging workup of knees with suspected popliteal cysts can include plain radiographs, arthrography, ultrasound, and MRI.

It is now known that a Baker's cyst is a bursitis, which is commonly associated with intra-articular knee pathology such as meniscal tears, chondral lesions and early osteoarthritis.
Ganglion cysts are filled with gelatinous and viscous fluid in the neighbourhood of joints or tendon sheaths. They are frequently seen at joints and tendons of the wrist but are rare in the region of knee joint. The most common cysts in the knee region are popliteal also called Baker's cysts.
