Title: Popliteal cystic adventitial disease: a case report and literature review. Author: Parnaby CN, Kent A, Wolf B. Journal: Scott Med J; 2011 Nov; 56(4):236. PubMed ID: 22089048.

In conclusion, we highlight the importance of correct diagnosis and outline the different management strategies.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
