Welcome to another edition of our #LiveSurgeryTuesday! In this video, Dr. Alejandro Badia performs a minimally invasive arthroscopic ganglion cyst excision of the wrist. By carefully navigating the radiocarpal joint and utilizing the 3-4 and 4-5 portals instead of the standard approach, Dr. Badia gains direct access to the cyst for a precise debridement while confirming that vital structures like the scapholunate ligament and TFCC remain pristine.

During the procedure, Dr. Badia discusses the clear advantages of arthroscopy over open surgery—such as faster recovery and reduced post operative pain, which are especially crucial for workers’ compensation cases. He also shares insights from his international surgeries in India and Australia, emphasizing the global need for continuous medical education and specialized upper extremity care.
