These cysts in the back of the knee usually restrict normal range of motion and are painful for the patient. As a result, weâll often recommended drainage before we undertake stem cell therapy for the knee. Bakerâs cysts are usually treated by draining them in a blind fashion (without guidance) and then injecting high dose steroids. This helps for awhile, but then the cyst comes back.

Annulus Fibrosus and Nucleus Pulposus. Intervertebral discs are composed of an annulus fibrosus and a nucleus pulposus. The annulus fibrosus is a strong radial tireâlike structure made up of lamellae; concentric sheets of collagen fibers connected to the vertebral end plates.The sheets are orientated at various angles.he annulus fibrosus encloses the nucleus pulposus. Although both the annulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus are composed of water, collagen, and proteoglycans (PGs), the amount of fluid (water and PGs) is greatest in the nucleus pulposus. PG molecules are important because they attract and retain water.
