Abstract

Intraosseous ganglion cysts are uncommon, benign, and usually found within long bone. The lesions appear similar to their soft tissue counterparts grossly and histologically, exhibiting a thick fibrous wall and being filled with a slimy, mucin rich, gelatinous material. A 70-year-old woman presented with a 2-year history of progressive hip joint pain with osteoarthritis. Hip joint motion was moderately limited and X-ray findings revealed a lucent area surrounded with sclerotic margin in the deformed femoral head with hip joint degenerative change. Intraoperative findings showed mucinous material in the lesion. Biopsy confirmed intraosseous ganglion. Treatment consisted of total hip replacement arthroplasty because of old age and severe hip joint pain.
