چکیده

We present a case of aneurysmal bone cyst involving the roof of the orbit and sphenoid bone, with plain film, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging findings.

In this case the lesion was solitary and was successfully removed, so that possible complications from radiotherapy were avoided.
