Diaphyseal intraosseous ganglion.
Ganglion cysts of bone are noted to occur most often in the metaphysis of epiphysis of a long bone. A unique ganglion cyst, developing in a diaphyseal location, was excised from the leg of a 14-year-old boy. The follow-up examination showed no recurrence one year following surgery.
