What happens during the disease - rupture of popliteal cyst
Rupture of a popliteal cyst is caused by the accumulation of fluid within the cyst, which is typically caused by an underlying condition such as trauma, repetitive motion, or a congenital defect. the accumulation of fluid within the cyst causes increased pressure, which can lead to the cyst wall weakening and eventually rupturing. this can lead to the release of the fluid into the surrounding tissue, resulting in inflammation, pain, and swelling.
