A member asked:
Can you tell me what kind of cancer can you have from a soft tissue mass/tumor in the knee besides sarcoma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A mass?: The most common knee mass is the familiar baker cyst. Cancer arising in the knee is usually a sarcoma of some sort; osteosarcomas, ewing sarcomas, and pigmented villinodular synovitis are all common here. There are plenty of benign bone and soft tissue tumors here as well. Hoping you get a favorable diagnosis, and best wishes.
