Ganglion Cysts

About Ganglion Cysts

Ganglion cysts are noncancerous lumps that commonly develop along the tendons or joints of the wrists or hands. These fluid-filled sacs can vary in size and may cause pain or discomfort, especially when pressing on a nerve. While ganglion cysts are often harmless and may resolve on their own, treatment options are available for persistent or bothersome cysts. Dr Langbart, with his expertise in hand surgery, offers various treatment approaches, including aspiration to remove the fluid or surgical excision to eliminate the cyst, providing relief and restoring normal hand function.
