Ganglion cysts of the knee joint usually present near the lateral meniscus. Their size varies, and they may be encased in single or multiple capsules. Few case reports on ganglion cysts of the knee joint have been reported. We report a giant ganglion cyst that developed in the patellar fat and partly extended into the joint. The ganglion cyst was exposed in the meniscosynovial junction and was electrically evaporated at the anterior horn. No recurrence has occurred to date, and the patient has returned to his previous level of activity.
