A Massive Foot Ganglion: Case Report

The foot is a relatively uncommon site of neoplastic and non-neoplastic soft tissue tumors. Although it contains a relatively small amount of somatic soft tissue elements, the foot is considerably rich in tendons, fasciae, retinaculae, and synovium. Corresponding to this distribution of soft tissue elements, some soft tissue lesions, such as ganglion, giant cell tumor of tendon sheath, fibromatosis, and synovial sarcoma, are commonly seen in this location.
