VIDEO: Ganglion Cyst Removal Procedure

Ganglion_CystA ganglion cyst is a small, tumor-like mass that can occur on hands or feet. It is a minor, benign cyst that can manifest in or around joints, tendons, or ligaments. Causes for these cysts are not certain, but are often attributed to trauma around the area.

As they enlarge, they can become painful and in some cases, cause nerve damage. A simple office procedure safely removes ganglion cysts. Here’s an interesting video, demonstrating the procedure.
