Minimally Invasive Ganglion Removal In Singapore Is It Right For You

A ganglion cyst is a common, benign (non-cancerous) lump usually found on the wrist, hand, ankle or foot. It’s filled with jelly-like fluid and may or may not cause symptoms. Many ganglion cysts are harmless and painless, but they can sometimes lead to discomfort, nerve pressure or restricted movement.

Treatment Options: From Watchful Waiting to Minimally Invasive Surgery

1. Observation (Do Nothing) - Many cysts may shrink or disappear naturally over time (up to 30–50% can go away over months) without treatment. This may be reasonable if the cyst is painless and not interfering with function.
2. Non-Surgical Approaches - Aspiration (drawing fluid with a needle) can temporarily reduce size but often recurs.
3. Minimally Invasive/Ganglion Removal Surgery - There are two common approaches in Singapore: Open excision – small incision to remove the cyst and its stalk. Arthroscopic (keyhole) removal – tiny incisions and camera-guided instruments.

Benefits of Minimally Invasive Removal - Compared with traditional open surgery, minimally invasive (keyhole) techniques may offer:
Smaller incisions and less scarring
Less trauma and bleeding
Less post-op pain
Faster recovery and return to normal activities
Often same-day discharge
