title: [Retinaculum-plasty in dorsal wrist ganglion].
abstract: Pathogenesis and clinical manifestations are described. Ganglion extirpation often leaves larger defects in the joint capsule of the wrist, causing problems. A flap using parts of the retinaculum extensorum provides a reliable closure of the joint capsule defect and may reduce the risk of ganglion recurrences.
