Surgical Excision of a Vular Risk Ganglion

Vular risk ganglions are benign soft tissue masses that occur secondary getrama, mucoid degeneration or sonovial herneation from various carpal articulations. Open surgical excision offers a significantly lower chance of re-rence compared with aspiration in the treatment of risk ganglion. Arthoscopic excision has yielded promising outcomes, but data from comparative trials have not demonstrated its superiority to open excision.
