Recurrence of the cyst in 10-48% of cases, much more likely after the removal of the volar than dorsal wrist cysts37. When the associated part of the synovial sheath from which the cyst arises is removed as well, the recurrence rate may be as low as 4%. According to one study, a v...
in thepostoperative period. Occasionally, when there is previous spillage or added infection, the cyst becomes adherent to the surrounding brain, and removal without rupture becomes difficult.
