Abstract
Disorders in the proximal tibiofibular joint (PTFJ) is often missed or misinterpreted because healthcare professionals often do not consider it a source of pathology. This is a case report of the symptoms and treatment in a young man with intraneural ganglion cyst originating from the PTFJ. The diagnosis was verified by an MRI scan, since there were few objective findings. Treatment is decompression of the cyst, and to prevent recurrence it is important to disconnect the articular branch.
