Hypopigmentation with muscular and subcutaneous atrophy as a complication of Intralesional Steroid injection in Ganglion

Abstract

Although ganglion cysts are commonly encountered in surgical practice, recurrences have been reported with almost all modalities used in its management [1]. We report an unusual complication following intra-lesional steroid injection. Consent was taken from the father of the patient before presenting this case; permission was also taken from the Institutional Ethics Committee (Letter No. 106/IEC/2021/IGIMS, dated 12/05/2021).
