Abstract EN

Pediatric ganglion cyst of the hand is a rare entity.

Its incidence is even lower in those arising from the metacarpophalangeal (MP) joint.

We herein report the first known case of a ganglion cyst of the first MP joint in a 14-year-old boy.

Pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment are discussed.
