of the spine and hip femoral neck? And how significant are they? I just had 2 mris first of L-spine showing left synovial cyst projecting into spinal canal but causing no canal or nerual foraminal compromise, at L4-L5 . Some disc degenerative desease at L3-L5. Minimal mulitlivel lumbar spondylosis. Should I go straigt to an ortho doc with this? My primary wants me to ask neuro doc if i should see a spine doc or neuro surgeon. I don't know what cysts are. And the hip one says normal exam of right hip with feomoral neck subchondral cysts. How can it be both. Or does that mean its minor. I am supposed to ask rheumy about that one as the whole reason for mri was severe thigh pain and hip pain. Ruled out avascular necrosies, he thinks its trochanteric bursitis. I am about to file for SSDI for fibro cfs, neck pain, etc...this may help my case but I don't know what it means. Thanks if anyone knows!

Bump my post, can anyone help?

I had synovial cyst---Bakers cyst behind my knee. The synovial fluid lubs joints, When we crack our knuckles the fluid becomes displaced and that is the sound we hear.

The cyst behind my knee they took out. It was post op from minicus surgery.
Maybe an google search will turn up more info for you.
