The most common location for wrist ganglion cysts is in the volar wrist, particularly between the radial artery and flexor carpi radialis tendon, appearing multilocular or multilobular with a mean largest dimension of 1.0 cm. Given the propensity of ganglion cysts to occur at this site, attention to this area when imaging the wrist with sonography or magnetic resonance imaging should be considered.
