Ganglion cysts are common wrist lesions and, in about 20% of patients, they appear on a volar and radial location. Volar ganglions typically arise from the volar radiocarpal joint in the interval between the radioscaphocapitate (RSC) and the long radiolunate (LRL) ligaments. We report two patients with volar and radial ganglion cysts that originated at the dorsum of the scapholunate (SL) ligament. This may lead to inadequate treatment with a risk of recurrence. Level of Evidence: Level V (Therapeutic).
