Abstract
A ganglion cyst is a very rare lesion associated with the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). This lesion filled with viscoid fluid or gelatinous material arises from myxoid degeneration of the connective tissue of the joint capsule. A 40-year-old Chinese woman with ganglion cyst of the left TMJ is presented, and the differential diagnosis, histological characteristics and management of the ganglion cyst are discussed. A review of the literature is also presented.
