Characterization of CLP36/Elfin/PDLIM1 in the nervous system.

21 Sep 2009 CLP36, one of the alpha-Actinin Associated LIM Protein (ALP)/Enigma family proteins, has a wide tissue distribution, but little is known about its expression and role in the nervous system. We show here that CLP36 is expressed in sensory ganglia but ... Read more...

Ganglion cyst of the anterior cruciate ligament in children.

30 Aug 2009 The incidence of ganglion cysts of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) has increased significantly since the advent of MRI, but it remains exceptional in children. We report the case of a 7-year-old boy, with an exceptional imaging exam and ... Read more...

Intraneural ganglia in the hip and pelvic region. Clinical article.

30 Jul 2009 OBJECT: The authors describe their experience in a series of cases of intraneural ganglia within the hip and pelvic regions, and explain the mechanism of formation and propagation of this pathological entity. METHODS: Five patients with 6 ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Ganglion Cysts'

Definition: Nodular tumor-like lesions or mucoid flesh, arising from tendon sheaths, LIGAMENTS, or JOINT CAPSULE, especially of the hands, wrists, or feet. They are not true cysts as they lack epithelial wall. They are distinguished from SYNOVIAL CYSTS by the lack of communication with a joint cavity or the SYNOVIAL MEMBRANE.
