Abstract
A prospective study has shown that aspiration treatment of ganglion cysts of the wrist and hand can safely remove 85% of these tumors if one, two or three separate treatments are administered. There is a decided cost savings when this treatment is compared with surgical excision, even when the expense of surgical excision for aspiration treatment failures is added to the equation.Entities:
