Abstract
|
|
|
|
In contrast to ganglion of the soft tissue, periosteal ganglion occurring within or beneath the periosteum is a rare disorder. The differential diagnosis includes periosteal chondroma, lipoma, giant cell tumor of tendon sheath and periosteal osteosarcoma. Most common location for periosteal ganglion is the tibia, followed by radius, femur and ulna. To our knowledge, only 1 case of periosteal ganglion of the fibula has been reported in the literature. We report a case of periosteal ganglion of the distal fibula in a thirty-year-old woman treated with excision of the cyst and the adjacent periosteum.
