A rare case of a posttraumatic extensive ganglion cyst of the anterolateral thigh with connection to the knee joint is presented. A 54- year-old man presented a palpable mass in the anterolateral region of his right thigh with a 15 months existing se...
Background/Objectives: Ganglion cysts of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) are rare, benign periarticular pseudocysts that are clinically indistinguishable from the true synovial cyst and frequently mimic parotid or other preauricular tumors, making...
In the current study, we present a case of an intramuscular ganglion cyst in the flexor hallucis brevis muscle (FHB) that arose secondary to a muscle tear. Through this study, we propose a possible aetiology for the development of intramuscular gangl...
A ganglion cyst is a benign mass consisting of high-viscosity mucinous fluid. It can originate from the sheath of a tendon, peripheral nerve, or joint capsule. Compressive neuropathy caused by a ganglion cyst is rarely reported, with the majority of...
Ganglion cysts are commonly observed in association with the joints and tendons of the appendicular skeleton. Ultrasonography is the favored modality used to manage such benign tumors, but it may suffer from operator subjectivity. In the treatment ph...
Purpose: Ganglion cysts of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) are uncommon periarticular lesions and may be diagnostically challenging because symptoms are often nonspecific. When these lesions arise posterior to the joint, they can produce otologic c...
Background: Foot drop (FD) is characterized by an inability to lift the foot against gravity because of dorsiflexor muscle weakness. The aim of the present study is to report a clinical case of acute non-traumatic FD in patients with peroneal intrane...
Ganglion cysts are common soft tissue masses of the hand and wrist, and small size cysts are often hypoechoic. Thus, identifying them from ultrasonography is not an easy problem. In this paper, we propose an automatic segmentation method using two ar...
Ganglion cysts have been recorded in many areas throughout the body. Intratendinous ganglion cysts in the foot are very rare. We present the case of 51-year-old woman with a recurrent right foot ganglion cyst. Surgical excision revealed a ganglion cy...
Ganglion cysts are relatively common entities, but intraneural ganglia within peripheral nerves are rare and poorly understood. We present a case of a 51-year-old man who presented with acute left dropfoot. Initial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) wa...
An unusual case of solitary benign schwannoma of the foot is presented. Clinical examination, magnetic resonance imaging, and intraoperative findings all confirm the suspicion of a ganglion cyst. After attempted aspiration failed to produce any aspir...
(1) Background: Patients with a superior-labrum-from-anterior-to-posterior (SLAP) tear associated with a spinoglenoid ganglion cyst have undergone various procedures. The purpose of this study is to evaluate clinical outcomes following arthroscopic t...
The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a commonly injured ligament in the knee. Bone tunnel widening is a known phenomenon after soft-tissue ACL reconstruction and etiology and the clinical relevance has not been fully elucidated. Osteoconductive co...
Guyon’s canal, or the ulnar tunnel, is a critical anatomical structure at the wrist that houses the ulnar nerve and artery, making it susceptible to various pathological conditions. Pathologies affecting this canal include traumatic injuries, compres...

A retrospective study was conducted to evaluate treatment of foot and ankle ganglion cysts seen at the Foot and Ankle Institute at the Pennsylvania College of Podiatric Medicine (now Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine). From 1990 to 1997,...
Background: Mucoid degeneration of the anterior cruciate ligament (MD-ACL) is a chronic degenerative process involving a hypertrophied ACL, which may lead to notch impingement syndrome. As a treatment method, there is consensus regarding arthroscopic...
Due to an increasing amount of patients on immunosuppressive treatment, the number of tuberculosis (TB) of atypical course and extrapulmonary tuberculosis cases increase. Locomotor system is a place of every fifth case of extrapulmonary TB. Because o...
Background: The craniovertebral junction is a complex region, connecting the occiput, the atlas, the axis, and the containing vital neural and vascular structures. There is a great variability in diseases involving the craniovertebral junction, of di...
Background and Objectives: The term “Juxtafacet cyst” refers to both synovial cysts and ganglion pseudocysts associated with the lumbar facet joint. As conservative treatment for the juxtafacet cyst has a minimal effect, complete excision...
Intraosseous ganglion, which is generally seen in metaphyseal-epiphyseal regions of long bones, is not a rare disorder. It is extremely rare in the talus, however. Differential diagnosis of a cystic talar lesion should include enchondroma, chondrobla...
This study investigated the prevalence of embryonic and connective tissue elements in the filum terminale (FT) of patients with tethered cord syndrome (TCS), examining both typical and pathological histology. The FT specimens from 288 patients who un...
Tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT) is a rare type of neoplasm that may be locally aggressive but is most often benign and can be divided into two subtypes: localized and diffuse. It tends to develop in the joints, bursae, and tendon sheaths primari...
Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) implants have been used for bone fixation for decades. However, upon insertion, they can cause a foreign body reaction (FBR) that may lead to complications. On 15 December 2023, a systematic review was conducted to search fo...
(1) Background: This research aimed to evaluate the changes in ganglion cell layer thickness (GCLT) after uncomplicated cataract surgery in patients without previous ocular pathology and the impact of the appearance of cystoid macular edema on the GC...

Acupuncture is one of the representative complementary and alternative medicine treatments used for various types of pain. This systematic review summarized and analyzed clinical case reports/series utilizing acupuncture for treating sports injuries...
(1) Background: We evaluated macular ganglion cell layer–inner plexiform layer (GCL-IPL) thickness in patients with primary macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) treated with scleral buckling (SB) or pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) usi...
Giardia lamblia (G. lamblia) is one of the most common protozoal infections and a key cause of malabsorption, some cases of mental developmental issues in children, and reduced body weight. The known antiparasitic medications, which are the standard...
