  • Title: Sequential tibial and peroneal intraneural ganglia arising from the superior tibiofibular joint.
    Author: Spinner RJ, Desy NM, Amrami KK.
    Journal: Skeletal Radiol; 2008 Jan; 37(1):79-84. PubMed ID: 17968541.
    Abstract:
    We present a patient who developed a peroneal intraneural ganglion and an adventitial cyst following the incomplete treatment of a tibial intraneural ganglion. These separate cysts all originated from the superior tibiofibular joint and dissected along their respective articular branches. A logical mechanistic explanation for these coexisting cysts is provided, which highlights the shared pathogenesis--its joint-related nature--rather than a multifocal de novo process. These observations would not only be consistent with, but would extend previous evidence in support of, the unifying articular (synovial) theory.
