Secondary Aneurysmal Bone Cyst Following Chondroblastoma of the Patella
نویسندگان
چکیده
Aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is a rare benign cystic lesion of the bone that composes 1-2% of the entire bone tumors. Some are idiopathic, and some occur secondary to other tumors such as giant cell tumor and chondroblastoma. In this article, we report the clinical, radiographic, and histological findings of a secondary ABC following chondroblastoma of the patella with a review of the literature.

Chondroblastoma of the patella with aneurysmal bone cyst.
Chondroblastoma of the patella is rare. Aneurysmal bone cysts, which develop from a prior lesion such as a chondroblastoma, are seldom seen in the patella. The authors report a case of a 36-year-old man who presented with 2 years of right knee pain without calor, erythema, pain on palpation, or abnormal range of motion. Radiological studies suggested aneurysmal bone cyst. The lesion was excised...
متن کامل[Aneurysmal bone cyst of the patella: case report].
We report a case of an aneurysmal cyst localized in the patella of a 37-year-old man. The lesion was secondary to a chondroblastoma at six years follow-up after initial curettage and bone graft. It were no recurrence. Treatment of aneurysmal cysts depends on the degree of articular involvement. We made a detailed study of 11 cases of this rare localization of aneurysmal cysts reported in the li...
متن کاملSecondary Aneurysmal Bone Cystic Change of the Chondroblastoma, Mistaken for a Primary Aneurysmal Bone Cyst in the Patella
A 29-year-old woman complained of a 3-month history of left knee pain without trauma history. X-ray showed a well-defined osteolytic lesion with a sclerotic margin in the patella and magnetic resonance imaging showed T1-low and T2-high signal intensity with different fluid level. Our impression was an aneurysmal bone cyst. At surgery, the lesion was a blood-filled cystic cavity, surrounded by a...
متن کاملAneurysmal bone cyst secondary to a giant cell tumor of the patella: A case report.
The patella is an unusual location for primary and metastatic bone tumors to develop. The most frequently encountered primary osteolytic lesions at the patella include giant cell tumors of the bone (GCT), chondroblastoma and aneurysmal bone cysts (ABC). However, the presentation of an ABC originating secondary to a GCT at the patella is rare. The present study describes such a case in a 46-year...
متن کاملChondroblastoma of the patella associated with an aneurysmal bone cyst.
Chondroblastoma is a rare, benign tumor of bone, accounting for about 1% of all bone tumor cases. It tends to affect the epiphyseal ends of long bones, most often in males during the first and second decades of life. It has well-characterized radiographic and histologic features but despite its histologically benign appearance a few cases of metastases have been reported. Local recurrences afte...
