[Abstract] Objective: To explore the MRI features and diagnostic value of the cruciate ligaments cysts.Materials and Methods: Clinical data and imaging features of 12 cases surgically confirmed of the cruciate ligaments cysts of knee joint were reviewed retrospectively, and the imaging features of MRI were summarized.Results: All of the 12 patients were unilateral knee joint, 1 patient presented both the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments cysts,11 patients were solitary cysts. Five cysts were found in the anterior cruciate ligaments and 8 in the posterior cruciate ligaments. MRI of cysts showed long T1 long T2 signal round, oval, banded or fusiform shape. It was high signal on the PD-FS sequence.Conclusion: MRI can clearly display the size, shape, location, number and surrounding structures of the cruciate ligaments cysts, MRI could be useful in the diagnosis, it has important guidance value for clinical work.
