Letter From the Guest Editor —Musculoskeletal Neoplasms

Several years ago a former colleague of mine shared with me an interesting case. She called me over to look at what she believed was a bizarre Baker cyst on a magnetic resonance imaging of the knee. Initially, as I viewed the images myself, I also believed the individual had a quite unusual Baker cyst. The patient had a large cystic appearing lesion posterior to the knee, which appeared bright on fluid sensitive sequences. However, on closer inspection, the signal of the lesion did not quite match the signal of fluid and the lesion did not really follow the expected location of a Baker cyst.
