Abstract
An unusual presentation of a ganglion pointing in the palm is presented. Treatment was rendered by surgical excision using an extensile incision. Studies that would have no effect on decisions regarding the need for or the method of surgery were avoided, thus minimizing unnecessary costs in the management of this patient.
