They are very common lumps that grow on top of the wrist on the palm side of the same or a finger. They come from joints or tendon sheaths nearby. They can be painful and resized, but not malignant. Treatment can be:
- Conservative: inmobilisation and even the aspiration of the fluid from the cyst with a needle.
- Surgical: removal of the cyst, but it also means that it may be necessary to extract the portion of the joint capsule or pod that caused it.
