Abstract:
Ganglion is a relatively-common, benign, soft tissue tumor that is almost always located near a joint capsule or tendon sheath. The common location is around the wrist, ankle or foot dorsum. We report a case of ganglion in a 53-year-old woman who presented with a solitary, tender, 1.0x1.0 cm sized, normal skin-colored, deep-seated nodule on the left sole. She had been treated by total excision of the tumor and recurrence has not been observed to date.
