“…However, other authors support that isolated intraosseous ganglia must be considered discrete lesions from their soft tissue counterparts eroding the bone and should also be distinguished from subchondral lesions associated with osteochondral injury or established osteoarthritis [ 18 ]. These authors have proposed other causative theories, such as proliferation of synovial remnants, local vascular disruption, aseptic necrosis, and local metaplasia [ 19 ].…”

Patient: Male, 51-year-old Final Diagnosis: Intraosseous ganglion cyst Symptoms: Discomfort • pain Medication: — Clinical Procedure: Athroscopy • bone graft Specialty: Orthopedics and Traumatology Objective: Rare disease Background: This article presents a rare case of 2 separate intraosseous ganglion cysts of the talus in a 51-year-old man, treated with a unique technique of precise lesion targeting to avoid extensive bone loss and minimize articular chondral injury of the talus. Case Report: Two separate intraosseous ganglion cysts of the talus were diagnosed in a 51-year-old man with chronic ankle pain. A single straight-line incision with an entry point through the talonavicular joint was created to spare the precarious blood supply of the talus network. The 2 distinct subchondral lesions were approached under fluoroscopic control for curettage and autologous bone grafting using the anterior cruciate ligament tibial guide in a pair-of-compasses fashion. In almost 5 years of follow-up the patient has been asymptomatic. Magnetic resonance imaging has revealed no signs of degenerative changes in the ankle or the talonavicular joint, and the intraosseous edema has almost disappeared. Conclusions: To the best of our knowledge, this case is the first report of 2 distinct intraosseous ganglion cysts of the talus. We recommend the precise targeting technique used in our case for treating intraosseous talar lesions with intact articular cartilage.

“…[3][4][5] Scaphoid tumors are preferentially treated with curettage and bone grafting to maintain scaphoid structure and surrounding carpal stability. 6 Giant cell tumors (GCT) make up around 2 to 5% of all carpal tumors and usually involve a single carpal bone. 3 One case described treatment of scaphoid GCT with excision and silicone implant with good functional results and no recurrence after 9 years.…”

Various pathologies of the adult carpus result in clinical scenarios where excision can be considered and even recommended. In the appropriate patient population, isolated carpal excision can alleviate pain and improve mobility. Excisions of the pisiform, trapezium, and trapezoid have abundant literature evidence to support positive long-term functional outcomes. In contrast, isolated excision of the capitate, hamate, and triquetrum has limited support in the literature secondary to compromise of carpal mechanics and lead to recurrent pain. Additionally, isolated scaphoid and lunate excision are best avoided secondary to carpal collapse and should be paired with concomitant stabilizing procedures in the carpus. This article provides a comprehensive literature review of isolated excision of each osseous carpal bone, their indications, and previously assessed outcomes.

“…Because of repetitive micro-injury to the supporting capsular structure, fibroblasts are stimulated to produce hyaluronic acid, which is the mucinous content of the cysts. 24 Most ganglion cysts are asymptomatic. Some may present with pain, tenderness, or impinged nerve symptoms depending on the location of the cysts.…”

Objective: A review of the anatomy of the synovial recesses of the knee is important to better understand the different effusion presentations, update the diagnosis criteria of knee effusion based on the measured synovial recesses and discuss the differentiation of some effused recesses from other lesions around the knee. Method: This review focuses on the anatomy of the synovial recesses of the knee and classifies them into three groups (anterior, parameniscal, and posterior recesses), as well as provides an overview on the etiology of knee effusion, its sonographic detection, and diagnosis criteria. Results: Knee effusion is a very common pathological finding in sonography of the knee. The unique joint structure of the knee provides the possibility to host complex synovial recesses. Fluid in some of the synovial recesses is valuable for the diagnosis of knee effusion, while in certain situations, some recesses may impose diagnostic uncertainty. Knowledge of these synovial recesses is essential to avoid diagnostic pitfalls. Conclusion: This review provides an important discussion of the differentiation of some recesses effusions from other lesions around the knee.
