Abstract

Subchondral cyst, intraosseous ganglion or synovial bone cyst had been used by various authors to describe benign bone cyst containing mucoid viscous materials at the metaphysis or epiphysis of long bones adjacent to a joint [1, 2]. The three terms appear to be used interchangeably [2, 3], although some authors prefer to classify lesion as an interosseous ganglion if it occurs as a solitary lesion not associated with degenerative joint diseases [4]. Synovial bone cyst is a misnomer as the cyst lining lacks synovial cell surface [5]. Most frequently it involved the hip, the ankle, the knee and the carpal bones [5].
