Popis: Volar retinacular ganglions are the third most common group of all ganglions located in the hand and wrist region. The purpose of this work is to present our experience in management and the results of operative treatment of volar retinacular ganglions. One-hundred-and-seven patients were operated-on for volar retinacular ganglions between 2000 and 2014. One-hundred-and-eight ganglions were resected. Complications which were observed in five patients postoperatively (digital nerve irritation, restricted range of motion of digital joints) resolved within several weeks. At final follow-up, no ganglion recurrence, impairment of finger mobility, innervation or blood supply were observed in any of the patients.
