Volar wrist ganglion associated with radial artery atherosclerosis: A case report.
Medicine (Baltimore)
July 2023
Article Synopsis
- A 58-year-old woman presented with a wrist mass that caused tingling in her fingers; imaging confirmed it was adjacent to the radial artery.
- Surgical exploration revealed distortion of the superficial radial nerve and complications involving the radial artery, leading to ganglion and part of the artery being resected and reconstructed with a vein graft.
- At a 34-month follow-up, the patient had no symptoms and the radial artery remained healthy, indicating that careful diagnosis and possible artery reconstruction are important in similar cases.
