Two cases of aneurysmal bone cysts in the jaw.

Aneurysmal bone cysts. Review of twelve cases.

Unusual localizations of unicameral bone cysts and aneurysmal bone cysts: A retrospective review of 451 cases.

Unicameral bone cysts (UBC) and aneurysmal bone cysts (ABC) are benign cystic lesions of bone which are easily diagnosed. However, unusual locations may lead to a false diagnosis. Therefore the aim of this retrospective study was to determine the frequency of unusual localizations. The authors studied 451 cases with histopathologically confirmed diagnosis of UBC or ABC, seen between 1981 and 20...

Aneurysmal Bone Cysts of the Spine: Two Case Reports

Aneurysmal bone cysts are rare entities which causes expansile and destructive bone lesions characterized by reactive proliferation of connective tissue. They usually grow rapidly with hypervascularity. In clinical practice they can be easily misdiagnosed due to the rare occurance and having no such typical findings as radiologically. Most cases have uncommon pain symptoms, but rarely, if fract...

Aneurysmal bone cysts of soft tissue represent true neoplasms: a report of two cases.

A neurysmal bone cyst was first described by Jaffe and Lichtenstein in 1942. It is considered a benign, locally aggressive lesion with a potential for local recurrence, and it typically appears in the metaphysis of the long bones and in the vertebral column. Mostly, children and young adults are affected. No sex predilection has been observed. Radiographically, aneurysmal bone cyst is seen as a...

Aneurysmal bone cysts of the vertebrae.
