A – 19 year – old men was reffered to our
Surgical department with a 4 – month history of an
asymptomatic swelling in the left supraclavicular fossa.
The patient a few months ago, carried sacks of cement.
The left supraclavicular fossa was enlarged by a clearly
delineated, elastic fluctuating swelling with a diameter of
10-12 cm, spreading infraclaviculary. The ultrasound
examination confirmed an infraclIavicular spreading and
revealed a hypoechogenic echo-free mass of the size of
10x15 cm, clearly outlined and no internal perfusion was
found by color-coded Doppler investigation. The blood
count and biochemical tests were normal. The
histologically examination was found the presence of a
tissue characteristic for a synovial cyst and a diagnosis of
acromioclavicular cyst was made. Treatment of synovial
cysts was surgical with surgical resection of the cyst.
