Core Tip With modern advances in magnetic reson-ance imaging studies, synovial cysts are seen with degenerative lumbar facet disease. A symptomatic synovial cyst usually presents with a gradual onset low back pain originating from facet arthropathy and radicular pain or neurogenic claudication due to nerve roots compression. Previous reports showed synovial cyst can present with a progressive radicular pain and weakness secondary to spontaneous hemorrhage into the cyst. To the authors’ best knowledge, this is the first case report of iatrogenic hemorrhagic lumbar synovial cyst.
