The ganglion cyst is the most common type of soft tissue benign mass that occurs in the hand and wrist. Ganglia may result from any joint capsule or tendon sheath. They most often occur at the dorsum of the wrist, but they may arise from any joint of the hand. Ganglion cysts require a clinical and diagnostic imaging assessment to be diagnosed. In this case, the clinical, imaging tests and macroscopic surgical diagnosis was a “ganglion cyst” of the distal radioulnar joint, however, histopathology led to diagnosis of an apocrine cystadenoma.
