Abstract

Ganglion cysts are the most common soft tissue tumor of the hand and wrist, affecting pediatric and adult populations. Despite their frequency, there is no consensus within the literature regarding the best management of pediatric wrist ganglia, and there are few recent publications examining this topic. We provide an up-to-date literature review examining the current issues and controversies in the management of pediatric wrist ganglia.
