Ganglion Cyst Removal in Turkey
Ganglion cyst removal, called a ganglionectomy, is surgery to remove a cyst from your hand, wrist, foot, or other part of your body. A ganglion cyst is a swollen, closed sac under the skin. The sac may develop from the sheath of a tendon or joint. Tendons connect muscle to bones, and the sheath is a thin sleeve of elastic tissue that wraps around the outside of a tendon. The cyst contains fluid similar to joint fluid, the clear fluid in knees, shoulders, and other joints.
While a Ganglion Cyst might present in a similar way to a tumor, they are something entirely different, and because of the distinct difference in composition in cancerous tumors and cysts, Ganglion Cysts are not, and cannot be, cancerous.
A ganglion cyst may be removed if:
- It’s causing severe pain.
- It’s getting bigger and is restricting joint motion.
- It’s pressing or pushing on vital organs, arteries, nerves, or veins.
