Abstract

The formation of a pretibial ganglion cyst after the reconstruction of an anterior cruciate ligament is an uncommon complication which may be a result of the degradation of the biodegradable screw or a variety of other reasons. The authors report a case of a significantly large pretibial cyst, which probably occurred as a result of no treatment over a long period, along with a description of the clinical manifestations and radiologic findings.

경골 전방에 발생하는 결절낭은 전방십자인대 재건술 이후 발생하는 드문 합병증 중 하나이다. 이것은 생분해성간섭나사의 분해 또는 다른 여러가지 원인으로 인해 발생하게 된다. 저자는 상당기간 치료받지 않아 크기와 골미란이 심하게 진행된 경골 전방의 결절낭을 경험하여 보고하는 바이다.
