Abstract

Three cases of intraosseous ganglion cysts of the ankle are presented with an average follow-up of 68 months (range, 48-78 months). Review of the literature revealed 251 cases of intraosseous ganglion cysts, with 75 located in the ankle and a recurrence rate of 6.1%. In the three cases presented, a satisfactory long-term result was obtained with bone graft and curettage in two cases and currettage alone in one case. No recurrences or complications occurred.
