Ganglion cysts usually occur around the wrist, and often communicate with the radiocarpal or intercarpal joint.
Needle aspirations alone may lead to recurrence.
To prevent recurrence, it is important to excise the feeder channel located in the tail of the ganglion cyst, and remove the cyst wall in total.
Always send the tissue for histopathology.
