Sumario:INTRODUCTION: Periosteal ganglion is a form of cystic swelling commonly seen around long bones of lower extremities. CASE REPORT: A 55-year-old male presented to outdoor clinic with gradually increasing swelling around anteromedial aspect of the right knee joint with intermittent pain on prolonged standing and walking for 8 months. Magnetic resonance imaging was suggestive of ganglionic cyst which was confirmed later by histopathological examination. CONCLUSION: Ganglionic cyst of periosteal origin is a rare entity. Complete excision is the recommended treatment option; if not performed appropriately chances of recurrence are high.
