Ganglion cysts that occurred within sheaths of peripheral nerves have been documented in literatures, but it is relatively rare condition. The peroneal nerve is the most common site of involvement. Other reported sites of involvement are the radial, ulnar, median, sciatic, tibial and posterior interosseous nerves. We report a case of the intraneual ganglion cyst within peroneal nerve and another case of the intraneural ganglion cyst within a medial plantar nerve that were successfully excised without neurologic complication.

A subperiosteal ganglion is a very rare benign soft tissue tumor characterized by mucoid degeneration and cyst formation within the periosteum, which may results in cortical erosion. When evaluating a periosteal mass in out-patient clinic, ultrasonography can be used to define the location and cystic nature of the subperiosteal ganglion. A 48 years old woman had two month history of the protruding mass over the anteromedial aspect of right proximal tibia. Ultrasonography was used for the diagnosis of the subperiosteal ganglion in out-patient clinic and mass was excised uneventfully. We report the case of a subperiosteal ganglion of the proximal tibia with literature review.

Ganglionic cyst is the most common benign tumor in the wrist and hand, and easily diagnosed with ultrasonography. Ganglionic cyst in sonography usually appears as hypoechoic or anechoic with well-demarcated cystic mass. We report a case of the hyperechoic mass at the volar aspect of the wrist, which confirmed as ganglionic cyst by operative and histological findings.

An intraosseous ganglion typically exists in periarticular epiphysis or subchondral area, and is usually treated with open curettage of cyst or curettage and bone graft. We report a case of intraosseous ganglion of talus treated by endoscopic curettage and bone grafting with a review of the literature.

Ganglion cysts occurring within sheaths of peripheral nerves have been documented, but are relatively rare entities. The peroneal nerve at the level of the knee and proximal tibiofibular joint is most commonly involved. We report a case of the intraneural ganglion cyst in the peroneal nerve without neurologic deficit, which was excised sucessfully.

Purpose: We reviewed the effectiveness and the result of arthroscopic resection for ganglion cyst of posterior cruciate ligament(PCL) through the posterior trans-septal approach. Material and Method: Seven patients with symptomatic ganglion cyst of the PCL were treated with arthroscopic resection using posterior trans-septal approach. We analyzed advantages of the posterior trans-septal approach and presence of intra articular problem. Knee function was assessed using the lysholm knee scale. Results: The overall result for the 7 knees were very satisfied in all. We found that four of seven patients had intra articular problems, and past history of trauma could be found in 3 cases. The Lysholm knee scale was increased from average 93.3 points preoperatively to average 97.8 points postoperatively. Conclusion: Arthroscopic posterior trans-septal approach shows an effective technique for complete resection of cyst and evaluation of the combined posterior compartment injury.

A ganglion cyst contains clear high viscous fluid within dense fibrous connective tissue wall communicating with joint or tendon sheath, but is not frequent around the knee joint. A hard mass at the medial side of the knee joint of the 73 years old woman, mimic to hard tumor mass was diagnosed as the ganglion using ultrasonography. Ultrasonography was a useful diagnostic tool of the cystic lesion although the consistency of the mass was hard enough to be suspected as a tumor mass.

Pretibial ganglion cyst after arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is a very rare complication, and a few are reported in and outside the country. Some authors report that it may break out with a variety of causes at any time. We experienced a case of pretibial ganglion cyst after arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using Achilles tendon allograft and bioabsorbable interference screw in 34-year-old male. So we report this case including the cause and the treatment with a review of the literature.
