In a recent communication Lichtenstein (1950) described in detail 8 cases of1 aneurysmal bone cysta new pathological entity. He and Jaffe first discovered the lesion in 1942 while reviewing their material pertaining to solitary unicamera bone cyst, and, between 1942 and 1948, they came across ' a dozen or more additional cases of the same lesion According to Lichtenstein, aneurysmal bone cyst i...

Maxillary bone epithelial cyst is rare in dogs. A 5-year-old, spayed female miniature schnauzer developed a swelling below the nasal canthus of left eye. Plain radiograph demonstrated a 1.5 cm diameter of radiolucent lesion on the maxillary bone anteroventral to the eye, and contrast dacryocystorhinography confirmed an obstructed nasolarcrimal duct. The swelling showed poor response to antibiot...

Thyroglossal duct cyst presents most frequently in the midline of the neck, either at or just below the level of the hyoid bone. They generally manifest as painless neck swelling, and they move on protrusion of tongue and during swallowing. A case of thyroglossal cyst was reported in the left submandibular region in a 14-year-old girl, above the level of hyoid bone; ultrasound examination favor...

BACKGROUND Simple bone cysts are common benign lesions in growing children that predispose them to fracture and are sometimes painful. The purpose of this trial was to compare rates of healing of simple bone cysts treated with intralesional injections of bone marrow with rates of healing of those treated with methylprednisolone acetate. METHODS Of ninety patients randomly allocated to treatme...

The aneurysmal bone cyst is a benign pseudotumor that often arises off the center of long bones metaphysis and which as it grows can blow out bone. most widespread etiopathogenic theory reaction process to venous malformation but neoplastic currently being discussed since discovery translocation t (16; 17) (q22; p13) recurrent in primary cysts.

Cystic jaw bone lesions have been largely studied and discussed since the beginning of their recognition. Although many them already well-defined, some go on generating divergent opinions, such as lateral periodontal cyst (LP C) botryoid odontogenic (BOC). The objective this article is to report two cases unusual characteristics, one about a other cyst, presenting considerations clinical, radio...

Aneurysmal bone cyst are benign rapidly expanding bone destructive lesions of any bone. They are common in the metaphysis of long bones but 10-30% involve the spine. Cervical region involvement is uncommon. We report a case of aneurysmal bone cyst of clivus C1 and C2 with minimum symptoms. Involvement of C1 and clivus separately had been reported in past, but simultaneous involv...

A simple bone cyst in the upper end of the humerus presents a common surgical problem. lt is usually diagnosed in childhood or adolescence because of a pathological fracture. Rarely the cyst heals after fracture; usually it persists and needs surgical treatment if the risk of recurrent fractures is to be avoided. Curettage of the cyst and packing of the cavity with bone chips is the usual treat...

Odontogenic cysts, which showed cystic radiolucency in the jaw bone by radiographic examination and computed tomography, were enucleated by operation in 3 dogs. One dog had a odontogenic keratocyst in the incisive bone of the right maxilla and another 2 cases revealed dentigerous cysts in the mandible. These cyst walls were enucleated or transpired by semiconductor laser. Afterwards, osteogenes...
