Abstract

The intraosseous ganglion is a rare cystic lesion of bone most frequently located in the subchondral epiphysis of long bones with or without direct communication with a joint cavity. This case is reported to call attention to this lesion which deserves consideration in the differential diagnosis of solitary cystic lesions of bone. We were reported a 59-aged woman without direct communication with the knee joint and osteoarthritis which was treated with the curettage and chip-bone graft.
