RESUMO
Ganglion cysts represent a small group of lesions that can arise from almost any joint in the body. Demonstrating a predilection for the joints in the hand and wrist, ganglion cysts in the glenohumeral joint are extremely rare. Due to the vivid array of masses that can be found in the axillary fossa, forming a free-from-error work-up to the correct diagnosis can be quite confounding. In this paper, we present a case of a paralabral cyst of the shoulder joint, located in the axilla. With there being only eight other such cases published in clinical literature, we believe this case report to be of unique importance in gaining further insight into the genesis and treatment of this pathology.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: Evaluation of patients with peripheral lung lesions and lesions of the chest wall and mediastinum is challenging. The nature of the lesion identified by imaging studies can be determined by histological evaluation of biopsies. An important place in this direction is the ever-increasing popularity among thoracic surgeons of the transthoracic biopsy with a cutting needle under ultrasound control (US-TTCNB).
