We describe a patient with adventitial cystic disease of the popliteal artery with intermittent claudication involving the right calf during exercise. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) revealed a cystic lesion that encircled and compressed the popliteal artery. Resection of the cyst involving a segment of the affected popliteal artery and interposing an autologous ve...

Twenty-two patients with cysts of the lateral meniscus have been treated by operation. A modified operative procedure is described whereby the meniscus is inspected for a concomitant tear. A tear of the meniscus was found in ten patients and these were treated by meniscectomy. The remaining twelve cases were treated by excision of the cyst only. The rehabilitation period was considerably less i...

In a 41-year-old man, right-sided infraspinatus muscle weakness was associated with compression of the suprascapular nerve caused by a spinoglenoid ganglion cyst. The lesion was confirmed using electromyography and MRI. In addition, arthroscopy showed an incomplete discoid labrum. The free inner edge of the labrum was removed as in a meniscectomy of a discoid meniscus in the knee joint. Arthros...

Soft tissue ganglions are commonly encountered cystic lesions around the wrist presumed to arise from myxomatous degeneration of periarticular connective tissue. Lesions with similar pathology in subchondral location close to joints, and often simulating a geode, is the less common entity called intraosseous ganglion. Rarer still is a lesion produced by mucoid degeneration and cyst formation of...

The ganglion is the most common soft tissue tumor of the hand and wrist, originating from the joint capsule or tendon sheath. Accurate diagnosis and proper treatment of these entities require a thorough knowledge of the anatomy of the wrist and hand as well as of the ganglion itself. Definitive therapy is based on total surgical removal of the cyst and its connections to the joint or tendon she...

Compression neuropathy of the ulnar nerve at the elbow is commonly caused by constriction at the fibrous cubital tunnel or an anatomical elbow deformity. Many uncommon causes of compression have been described, including Osborne’s band, ulnar nerve subluxation,1 anatomical confines of the cubital tunnel, elbow osteoarthritis, ganglion,2 prominent medial head of triceps,3 and an anconeus epitroc...

Background To describe the clinical and magnetic resonance imaging findings of ganglion cysts with effusion in the flexor hallucis longus tendon sheath around the hallux to evaluate their origin. Methods Patients with recurrent or painful ganglion cysts around the hallux with effusion in the flexor hallucis longus tendon sheath who underwent surgical treatment at St. Vincent's Hospital from F...

(1) Background: Patients with a superior-labrum-from-anterior-to-posterior (SLAP) tear associated spinoglenoid ganglion cyst have undergone various procedures. The purpose of this study is to evaluate clinical outcomes following arthroscopic treatment in patients concomitant and SLAP lesion. (2) Methods: This followed PRISMA (preferred reporting items for systematic reviews meta-analyses) guide...

Objective: The study aimed to assess the sternum's morphology and morphometry, find anomalies diseases using breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
 Materials Methods: Retrospective evaluations of 320 MRIs were conducted. Congenital abnormalities accompanying pathological conditions investigated. sternum overall’s length, manubrium-corpus’ width manubrium-corpus-xiphoid’s shape all measu...

ABSTRACT We present a case of left suprascapular nerve palsy in a 39- year-old female secondary to compression from a large ganglion cyst. She presented with a two month history of left posterior shoulder pain which affected her work and disturbed her sleep. Clinical examination revealed a positive O'Brien's test. Supraspinatus and infraspinatus strength was mildly weakened. A magnetic resonanc...
