Radial Wrist Pain

Intraosseous ganglion cyst is a rare bone tumor and the lesion could often be missed. The diagnosis could be delayed so proper radiologic investigation and index of suspicion is necessary .Differential diagnoses of painful cystic radiolucent carpal lesion are osteoid osteoma, osteoblastoma and intraosseous ganglion. Curettage of the scaphoid lesion and filling of void with bone graft provides good functional outcomes. The cyst contains mucoid viscous material without epithelial or synovial lining. We present a case of 30 years old male with intraosseous ganglion cyst of scaphoid which was treated with curettage and bone grafting. Rarely ganglion cyst is found in small bones of hand and should be considered as differential diagnosis of chronic radial wrist pain.

INTRODUCTION:Intraosseous ganglion cyst of carpal bones is an uncommon cause of wrist pain. Although isolated cases of scaphoid and lunate have been reported in literature,intraosseous ganglion cyst in both scaphoid and lunate is rare. CASE REPORT:We report a case of 27 year old female who presented with a 6 month history of progressive left wrist pain. History of trauma was not reported. Conservative treatment with medications was unsuccessful. Examination revealed moderate swelling and tenderness over volar aspect of wrist with terminally painful wrist motions. Plain radiograph and MRI revealed well defined lesion in both scaphoid and lunate bone. Curettage and filling with radial bone graft provided a good functional recovery. CONCLUSION:we propose that early diagnosis of intraosseous ganglion is based on clinical presentation, proper radiologic investigation and index of suspicion can be helpful in the surgical management of intra osseous ganglion cyst in small bones of hand and intraosseous ganglion cyst may be considered as a differential diagnosis for wrist pain

Intraosseous ganglion cyst of the lunate is an uncommon lesion and cause of wrist pain. Histopathologically it is identical to the common dorsal wrist ganglion and treatment by arthrotomy, curettage of the ganglion and bone graft resulted in clinical improvement in nine patients, six of whom became symptom-free.

Radial Wrist Pain

We report an abnormal muscle on the radial aspect of the wrist, which presented clinically as a ganglion and radial wrist pain. Existence of muscles in the first compartment has been accounted earlier, however its atypical presentation advocates its inclusion in the differential diagnosis of a dorso-radial ganglion and wrist pain.

Abstract Background: Intraosseous ganglion cysts (IOGs) of the carpal bone are uncommon tumors that may represent rare causes of chronic wrist pain. Arthroscopic resection has been described in isolated symptomatic cases as a feasible technique; however, there is no published study investigating this technique in an unstable wrist. We aimed to study the outcome of arthroscopic lesion resection combined with intercarpal ligament thermal shrinkage for the IGOs in the wrists with occult instability.Methods: Fourteen patients from our hospital database between 2013 and 2015 who had IOGs combined with occult carpal instability were retrospectively reviewed. Diagnosis was exclusively established based on persistent wrist pain and functional limitation before surgery. The IOGs were removed under arthroscope, and bone grafting was performed accordingly dependent on the sizes and locations of the lesion. The lax intercarpal ligaments were tightened by radiofrequency shrinkage. Results were analyzed for demographic data and functional outcomes.Results: At a mean follow-up of 27 months, all patients were satisfied with pain relief and the patients’ grip power improved. The pre- and postoperative range of motion of the affected wrist had no significant difference. Radiologically, cyst recurrence and joint instability development were not observed. The postoperative function of the wrists significantly improved based on the Mayo Wrist Score and Patient-rated Wrist Evaluation score.Conclusions: For IOGs of carpal bones in the wrist with occult instability, arthroscopic treatment, including cyst resection and ligament thermal shrinkage, was an effective way to improve pain and function of the effected wrist.

Dorsal Ganglion

Background The etiology of dorsal wrist pain associated with loading of the wrist in extension has not been clearly identified in the literature. Purpose Many exercise disciplines incorporate upper extremity weight-bearing exercises in an extended wrist posture, for example push-ups, plank position, and various yoga and Pilates poses. This study evaluates patients with dorsal wrist pain in the extended wrist-loading position and identifies anatomic abnormalities in the wrist using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Methods A retrospective chart review was performed comparing MRI of patients who complained of dorsal wrist pain while performing weight bearing in a wrist extension position with a control group of patients who complained of ulnar-sided wrist pain. The primary MRI outcome was dorsal wrist pathology, including occult dorsal ganglion cyst, scapholunate ligament tear or degeneration, and dorsal capsulitis. Results Dorsal wrist pathology was significantly more prevalent in patients with dorsal wrist pain (84%) than in the patient cohort with ulnar-sided wrist pain (12%). Occult dorsal ganglion cysts were the most common sources of pathology (76%). Conclusion MRI demonstrated an identifiable dorsal abnormality in 84% of patients with dorsal wrist pain associated with weight bearing on the extended wrist. Occult dorsal ganglion cysts are the most common cause of dorsal wrist pain, followed by partial scapholunate tears. When patients complain of dorsal wrist pain during specific extended loading wrist positions such as push-ups, yoga, or Pilates poses, an MRI may be warranted to help identify anatomic abnormalities that may help guide treatment choices. Level of Evidence Diagnostic, Level III.
