A member asked:
Is a loculated cyst in the knee that is 1.0 by 1.20 cm really something a doctor should not worry about?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends.: if it is not causing symptoms, and is not in a location to likely cause symptoms, there may not be a pressing need for any treatment at this point.
