Bilateral scaphoid ganglion cysts in an adolescent

S E Logan et al. J Hand Surg Am. 1992 May.

Abstract

We describe an adolescent girl with symptoms secondary to bilateral, symmetrical ganglion cysts of the scaphoid bones. From the roentgenographic and operative findings, it was believed that the cysts were the penetrating type. The patient is among the youngest reported with carpal bone ganglion cysts and the first with bilateral scaphoid cysts completely described in the English-language medical literature.
