Report of Two Cases of Meniscal Cyst

Two cases of meniscal cyst were reported in a 53-year-old female and a 49-year-old male. Total meniscectomies were carried out in both patients, and good results were obtained. Histological findings revealed cystic structures with lining epitherial cells. The incidence of meniscal cyst seems to be rare in Japan, compared to that of other countries. Clinical relevance is, however, very important in the differential diagnosis and treatment of meniscal cyst.
