  • Title: Cyst and cystlike lesions of the foot.
    Author: Bernstein AL, Jacobs AM, Oloff LM, Gilula L.
    Journal: J Foot Surg; 1985; 24(1):3-17. PubMed ID: 2982940.
    Abstract:
    A variety of cyst and cystlike lesions may present in the osseous structures of the foot. Such lesions are infrequent in their occurrence, and often cannot be diagnosed on the basis of radiographic appearance. In addition to the morphologic data that can be derived from evaluation of standard radiographs, other diagnostic radiographic studies such as tomography, CT scanning, radionuclide bone imaging, angiography, or other studies may be required to ascertain the nature and extent of cystlike lesions of the foot. This is dependent on histopathologic information derived from biopsy. A variety of cyst and cystlike lesions of the foot are presented with a review of their basic morphology and histopathologic, clinical, and prognostic characteristics.
