This case series study demonstrates the possibility of successful implant rehabilitation without bone augmentation in the atrophic posterior maxilla with cystic lesion in the sinus. Sinus lift without bone graft using the lateral approach was performed. In one patient, the cyst was aspirated and simultaneous implantation under local anesthesia was performed, whereas the other cyst was removed u...

This article describes osteoarthritis of the knee and a giant intraosseous cyst of the medial femoral condyle in an 83-year-old man that was treated successfully with total knee arthroplasty and autologous bone grafts. The patient presented to the authors' hospital with a 2-year history of right knee pain. A plain radiograph of the right knee revealed grade 3 medial compartment osteoarthritis w...

  Ganglion cysts are the most common wrist tumors, and 60 -70% originate dorsally from the scapholunate interval.  Ossification of these lesions is exceedingly rare, with only one such lesion located in the finger reported in the literature. We present a case of an ossified dorsal wrist ganglion in a 68-year-old woman.  

OBJECTIVES Idiopathic bone cavity (IBC), also named simple or traumatic bone cyst, is a common lesion of unknown cause. The mandible is a very common location, although it may occur in any bone of the body. The authors performed a retrospective analysis of 44 cases in order to assess the causation of this entity. METHODS Each case was analysed by two of the authors (IV and SM) for medical and...

Aneurysmal bone cyst is a rare benign cystic bone lesion with an incidence of only 0.14 per 100,000 individuals and most commonly affects the metaphyses of long bones, spine, and pelvis. We present a very rare case of a 17-year-old boy with a rapidly expanding aneurysmal bone cyst arising from the first rib, resulting in neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome secondary to its compression of the br...

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...

Although bone involvement associated with cyst hydatid is rarely seen, it can cause unintended results such as high recurrence rate, infection, sepsis, or amputation of relevant extremity. Because of this reason, its treatment is difficult and disputed. In the case of bifocal bone cyst hydatid in right femur, along with albendazole treatment, result of resecting cyst surgically and its treatmen...

Aneurysmal bone cyst is a benign tumor-like bone lesion. This report concerns a 43 year-old male patient diagnosed with a primary aneurysmal bone cyst of his right patella. His main presentation was anterior knee pain. The patient was treated with arthroscopic excisional biopsy of the cyst and curettage, followed by filling the cavity with bone cement at a second stage. During the 5-year follow...
