Abstract
Synovial cysts originating from proximal tibiofibular joint are commonly symptomatic. They can progress to cause pressure effects over the common peroneal nerve. In order to prevent recurrence the importance of excision of the ganglion and its stalk is emphasised. In recurrent cases treatment can be difficult. We describe an operation where after recurrence superior tibiofibular joint excision along with the cyst led to complete recovery in two cases.Entities:
