Abstract
Fifteen cases of ganglionic cystic defects of bone have been studied and the literature reviewed. These lesions present a characteristic roentgenographic appearance and are most often seen eccentrically at the end of a long bone, frequently the lower end of the tibia, in middle-aged patients. It is suggested, and evidence is presented to support the view, that these lesions develop by the intrusion of a lesion of ganglion-like connective tissue of the local soft parts into the bone.
