Ganglion Cyst Removal

A ganglion cyst removal is a minimally invasive surgical procedure aimed at eliminating a fluid-filled sac that commonly develops around joints or tendons, often in the wrist or hand. These cysts can be painless and sometimes disappear on their own, but if they cause discomfort or limit movement, surgery may be recommended. The procedure typically involves making a small incision to remove the cyst and its stalk. Recovery is usually swift, allowing most patients to return to normal activities within a few weeks, although some may experience swelling or stiffness initially.
