Ruptured Baker's cyst: a radiological diagnosis.

Rupture of a Baker's cyst may mimic thrombophlebitis of the leg clinically. Differentiation of these two entities is important because of therapeutic implications. A history of previous disease involving the knee, especially rheumatoid arthritis, or the finding of joint effusion are suggestive of the diagnosis of ruptured Baker's cyst. This may be confirmed by arthrography. We describe a series of eight patients with the "pseudothrombophlebitis" syndrome. Arthrography showed seven as having a ruptured Baker's cyst, while in one an intact cyst was found.

Sarcoma following irradiation for breast cancer. Report of three unusual cases including one malignant mesenchymoma of bone.

Three cases of sarcoma developing after irradiation for breast cancer are reported. A malignant mesenchymoma in the sternum--a combination of osteogenic sarcoma and rhabdomyosarcoma--is the first documented case of its kind occurring after radiation therapy. Of the other two tumors one was an extraskeletal osteogenic sarcoma in the soft tissues of the thoracic wall and one a rhabdomyosarcoma in the axilla.
