Sural Intraneural Ganglion Cysts Are Joint-related

In the field of plastic surgery, many new ideas and skills are developed by surgeons and researchers. “Publish or perish” is a phrase coined to describe the pressure in academia to publish work constantly to further or sustain one’s career [1]. To share knowledge or skill with others, or promote one’s position in schools, they should write papers. However, it is not easy to gather and develop w...

A posttraumatic, joint-connected sural intraneural ganglion cyst-with a new mechanism of intraneural recurrence: a case report.

UNLABELLED Intraneural ganglion cysts are rare in occurrence and most commonly involve the peroneal nerve at the fibular neck. We present a case of a traumatically induced intraneural ganglion cyst of the sural nerve that developed after a nondisplaced posterior malleolus ankle fracture. The intraneural ganglion cyst was connected to the subtalar joint by its articular branch and ascended sever...

Evaluation of Intraneural Ganglion Cysts Using 3D FSE-Cube

Purpose: It is often difficult to definitively diagnose intraneural ganglion cysts with conventional MR imaging and to identify the origin of the cyst in a joint via what may often be a subtle connection [1]. Identification of the joint connection has important clinical implications if it is not addressed surgically, such as: cyst recurrence, incomplete patient recovery, and suboptimal operativ...

Extra-Articular Ganglion Cysts around the Knee Joint

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to report clinical results of open excision of extra-articular ganglion cysts around the knee joint combined with arthroscopic management of intra-articular pathologies if present. MATERIALS AND METHODS Of the total 107 cases of cystic lesions around the knee, 23 cases of extra-articular ganglion cysts were reviewed between January 2006 and July 2011. The...
