Unicameral bone cyst of the scaphoid: a report of two cases.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Unicameral bone cysts are benign, fluid-filled lesions that occur mostly in long bones (proximal humerus, 50-60%; femur, 30%) of male children aged 5 to 15 years. Occurrence in the scaphoid of an adult is rare. We report 2 such patients who presented with wrist pain, with and without a history of trauma. Both underwent curettage and bone grafting (harvested from the distal radius) and achieved good functional recovery.

متن کاملRecurrence of a Unicameral Bone Cyst in the Femoral Diaphysis
Diaphyseal unicameral bone cysts of the long bone are generally known to originate near the growth plate and migrate from the metaphysis to the diaphysis during skeletal growth. In the case of unicameral bone cysts of diaphyseal origin, recurrence at the same location is extremely rare. We report a case of recurrence of a unicameral bone cyst in the diaphysis of the femur that developed 8 years...
