  • Title: [The typical wrist ganglion].
    Author: Kapral W, Zawodsky F, Bien I.
    Journal: Chirurg; 1978 Mar; 49(3):184-8. PubMed ID: 639610.
    Abstract:
    Occurrence of ganglion on the wrist in the scaphoid region in connection with protuberance of the scaphoid bone is statistically of high significance. As ganglions result from mucoid degeneration of connective tissue following microtraumata, the scaphoid protuberance may cause ganglion to appear most frequently at a localization above the scaphoid bone on the wrist. We suggest that this localization be called 'loco typico'.
