Baker’s cyst is also known as a popliteal cyst, is a type of fluid-containing cyst behind the knee.

A lubricating fluid called synovial fluid helps your leg swing smoothly and reduces friction between the moving parts of your knee.

But sometimes the knee produces too much synovial fluid, resulting in buildup of fluid in an area on the back of your knee (popliteal bursa), causing a

Baker’s cyst . This can happen because of:

  • Knee joint effusions may replete the gastrocnemius-semimembranosus bursa with synovial fluid and if the fluid outflow is hindered by a unidirectional mechanism, the gastrocnemius-semimembranosus bursa enlarges giving rise to a pseudo cystic cavity, referred to as a Baker’s cyst
