Endoscopic Ganglionectomy of the Volar Radial Wrist Ganglion.

ABSTRACT: Volar ganglion cyst of the wrist is a common hand problem faced by orthopaedic surgeons. Excision is indicated if it is painful. Arthroscopic ganglionectomy of the wrist ganglion has been reported with the advantage of minimally invasive surgery. Most of them involve elimination of the valvular mechanism and internal drainage of the ganglion fluid to the wrist joint. The access of the ganglion sac is limited especially for a multiloculated cyst. The purpose of this Technical Note is to report the technique of endoscopic resection of the volar radial wrist ganglion. This can ensure complete resection of the ganglion sac especially for the multiloculated one.

An Unusual Volar Wrist Mass: Radial Artery Pseudoaneurysm Following Transradial Catheterization.

Project description:Arterial pseudoaneurysms can develop secondary to a vessel injury, for example, an arterial line installation. We present a case of an 18-year-old female with mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes syndrome who developed left radial artery and right brachial artery pseudoaneurysms secondary to arterial line placement and repeated blood draws, respectively. The ultrasonographic features of pulsating mass in connection with an artery and the yin-yang sign, combined with the patient's history, allowed accurate diagnosis. She was referred to vascular surgery for definitive treatment.

Endoscopic Ganglionectomy of Palmar Ganglion via Flexor Carpi Radialis Tendoscopy.

Project description:Palmar ganglion is rare. Deep palmar ganglion usually arises from the wrist joint and may cause compression neuropathy. Superficial palmar ganglion may arise from the flexor tendons of the wrist. The chance of compression neuropathy is expected to be less than deep palmar ganglion. However, there is a higher chance of perforation through the skin and the ganglion may affect hand grip. Open resection of the ganglion does not require extensive deep soft tissue dissection. However, the skin incision can still be extensile to trace the stalk to the tendon of origin. The purpose of this Technical Note is to report the details of endoscopic ganglionectomy for superficial palmar ganglion arising from the flexor carpi radialis tendon.

Endoscopic Ganglionectomy of the Elbow.

Project description:Resection of the ganglion of the elbow is indicated if the size or location of the cyst impairs function or causes significant pain. Arthroscopic decompression or endoscopic resection of the cyst is the minimally invasive surgical option. It has the potential advantage of better cosmetic results and less soft-tissue dissection. Endoscopic resection is indicated if the cyst is not communicating with the joint or the communication is not identifiable arthroscopically or if there is a long and narrow communication placing the cyst away from the elbow joint. Preoperative magnetic resonance imaging is essential for surgical planning.

Endoscopic Ganglionectomy of the Tarsal Tunnel: A Medial Approach.

Project description:A ganglion inside the tarsal tunnel can compress the tibial nerve, leading to posterior tarsal tunnel syndrome. Classically, the ganglion is resected with an open approach. This requires release of the flexor retinaculum and dissection around the tibial neurovascular bundle, which may induce fibrosis around the tibial nerve. Endoscopic resection of a tarsal tunnel ganglion via a posterior approach has been reported. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the medial approach of endoscopic ganglionectomy of the tarsal tunnel. This is indicated for tarsal tunnel ganglia compressing the tibial nerve and extending to the flexor retinaculum. It is contraindicated if there is other pathology of the tarsal tunnel that demands open surgery; the ganglion compresses the tibial nerve from its deep side and does not extend to the flexor retinaculum; or in the presence of intraneural ganglion of the tibial nerve.

Endoscopic Ganglionectomy and Release of the Sixth Extensor Compartment.

Project description:Stenosing tenosynovitis of the extensor carpi ulnaris is one of the causes of dorsoulnar wrist pain. Conservative treatment is usually effective to alleviate the pain. Surgical release of the retinaculum of the sixth extensor compartment is indicated if conservative treatment cannot alleviate the pain. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the technical details of endoscopic release of the sixth extensor compartment via a 2-portal approach. Endoscopic resection of a ganglion over the sixth compartment can also be performed via the same approach.

Sonography-assisted arthroscopic resection of volar wrist Ganglia: a new technique.

Project description:Although satisfactory arthroscopic resection of volar wrist ganglia has been reported recently, the risk of damage to arteries, nerves, and tendons remains. Furthermore, ganglia and their stalks cannot be visualized arthroscopically in many cases, and surgeons must perform a blind resection of the joint capsule until ganglion cysts or their stalks appear. Sonography has limited resolution, but recent improvements in hardware and software have made it an excellent noninvasive and dynamic imaging technique for assessing the musculoskeletal system. Ganglia, tendons, nerves, and vessels around the lesion can be clearly observed by sonography. Furthermore, the cyclic motion of the arthroscopic shaver tip makes identification by sonography easy and assists in guiding the surgeon to the lesion.

Endoscopic Ganglionectomy of the Extensor Digitorum Longus Tendon: An Extraganglionic Approach.

Project description:AbstractGanglion is the most common soft tissue mass in the foot and can be painful and affect comfort wearing shoes. The usual treatment of a ganglion is conservative: careful neglect, manual rupture, or aspiration. When the lesion is recurrent or painful, surgical excision is recommended. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the extraganglionic approach of endoscopic ganglionectomy of the extensor digitorum longus tendon. This surgery has the advantage of being minimally invasive and having better cosmetic result, with less surgical trauma to the soft tissue.Level of evidenceLevel 1: foot and ankle; Level 2: other (ganglion).

Dry Arthroscopic Excision of Dorsal Wrist Ganglion.

Project description:Ganglions are common soft tissue masses of the hand. High recurrence rates are associated with nonsurgical treatment; thus, excision is often indicated. Arthroscopic excision and open excision have similar recurrence rates; however, the latter is associated with prolonged healing time and increased scarring. Recently, dry wrist arthroscopic techniques have been used. This technique allows easier confirmation of complete ganglion removal, easier conversion to open surgery, earlier return of motion, and stitch-less closure when compared with traditional "wet" arthroscopic excision.

Endoscopic Resection of the Tarsal Tunnel Ganglion.

Project description:The tarsal tunnel ganglion is a cause of posterior tarsal tunnel syndrome. Open resection of the ganglion calls for release of the flexor retinaculum and dissection around the tibial neurovascular bundle. This can induce fibrosis around the tibial nerve. We report the technique of endoscopic resection of the tarsal tunnel ganglion. It is indicated for tarsal tunnel ganglia arising from the adjacent joints or tendon sheaths and compressing the tibial nerve from its deep side. It is contraindicated if there is other pathology of the tarsal tunnel that demands open surgery; if the ganglion compresses the tibial nerve from its superficial side, which calls for a different endoscopic approach using the ganglion portal; or if an intraneural ganglion of the tibial nerve is present. The purpose of this technical note is to describe a minimally invasive approach for endoscopic resection of the tarsal tunnel ganglion.

Ligamentous radiocarpal fracture-dislocation treated with wrist-spanning plate and volar ligament repair.

Project description:Background Radiocarpal fracture-dislocations are challenging injuries that are often associated with postoperative pain, stiffness, instability, or early arthrosis. Case Description We report a 1-year follow-up of a ligamentous radiocarpal dislocation (Dumontier group I) treated with a dorsal wrist-spanning plate and volar capsular repair with good results. Literature Review Historically, Dumontier group I injuries treated with a variety of techniques (closed reduction and casting, percutaneous pinning, and open fixation) have been associated with stiffness and loss of reduction. Clinical Relevance Distraction plating is a safe and effective technique for treating select distal radius fractures, and we suggest it has the potential to produce good outcomes when used to treat radiocarpal fracture-dislocations.
