简要总结
Ganglion cysts are benign soft tissue tumors that commonly occur in the joints, especially the wrist. Surgical excision and steroid injection are the two main treatment options; however, their efficacy remains unclear. This prospective interventional control trial will include 54 patients with ganglion cysts.Patients were divided into two groups: Group A under going surgical excision and Group B in whom aspiration will be followed by 40 mg of intralesional triamcinolone acetonide injection. A follow-up session will be scheduled at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after the intervention will be performed, during which time they will be assessed for recurrence and postoperative complications.
