Abstract

We report two rare cases of ganglionic mass originating from the transverse ligament of the hip joint. MRIs of both cases showed low intensity in T1 and high intensity in T2 at the medial-caudal site of the femoral head. Corresponding hip arthroscopy of the medial-caudal site of the femoral head revealed a soft tissue mass covered with synovial tissue at the transverse ligament. Punction was performed through arthroscopy and the diagnosis for ganglion was done by aspiration of typical glassy, clear fluid. In the literature there are no cases reported of ganglion originating from the transverse ligament of the hip joint. Hip arthroscopy is valuable for diagnosis and treatment of intra-articular diseases. In these two cases, in particular, hip arthroscopy revealed the exact site of the ganglion, and precise aspiration and resection with forceps was performed resulting in a minimum invasive operation.
