INTRODUCTION Epitheloid hemangioma, a benign vascular tumor that arises in skin and soft tissues can also involve the skeletal system. Occasionally this has been reported from small tubular bones of the hand. CASE REPORT Authors report a case of epitheloid hemangioma of the middle phalanx in a young girl without any cutaneous manifestations. The lesion presented as a swollen middle finger, an...

Introduction: The nevoid basal cell syndrome (Gorlin’s Syndrome) is a dominant autosomic disorder, characterized by multiple basal cell carcinomas, odontegenic keratocysts, dural calcifications, bone and face malformations, tumors including meduloblastoma and ovaric fibromas, as well as different degrees of mental retardation. Characteristic imagine findings of the Gorlin’s Syndrome are odontog...

A 4-year-old boy developed progressive neck pain and an expansile osteogenic lesion of C2; the diagnosis was an aneurysmal bone cyst. An image-guided biopsy with 3D CT planning was performed followed by Ethibloc injection into the aneurysmal bone cyst. Subsequent CT and MR images demonstrated embolization material in the vertebrobasilar system, and the patient died of brain stem and cerebellar ...

Aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is a benign osteolytic lesion that is fast-growing, expansile, and locally destructive. The present case is of a young girl with facial asymmetry, which had become accentuated during the previous months. A conservative treatment was performed to reduce morbidity and affectation of the lower dental nerve.

INTRODUCTION Aneurysmal Bone Cyst (ABC) is a benign expansile cystic blood filled reactive lesion of the bone, most common in the first 2 decades of life. Though it can involve any bone in the body but tibia, humerus, femur and posterior elements of spine are most commonly affected. They most commonly involve metaphysis or metaphysio-diaphyseal part of the bone. Primary involvement of epiphysis...

Aneurysmal bone cysts are uncommon benign, expansile, and lytic lesions that develop in childhood or early adulthood. An aneurysmal bone cyst usually occurs as a primary lesion. In one third of the cases reported in the literature, a preexisting condition or history of trauma is present. Pain and swelling are the main symptoms and usually last for as long as 6 months. Long bones are involved in...

Aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is an expansile bone lesion that usually involves the long bones. Skull base involvement is rare. Hereby, we describe a 17-year-old man with hoarseness, facial asymmetry, left sided sensorineural hearing loss and left jugular foramen syndrome. CT scan and MRI showed a skull base mass that was confirmed as ABC in histopathology. The case was unusual and interesting due...

We present a patient with a distinctive lesion of the skull base, which, at imaging, showed expansile destruction of the sphenoid bone, hemorrhage with fluid-fluid levels, and contrast enhancement of a solid portion. These features ordinarily suggest either giant cell tumor or aneurysmal bone cyst; however, pathologic examination confirmed instead a rare variant of osteosarcoma of the telangiec...

Aneurysmal bone cyst is a rare nonneoplastic expansile osteolytic bone lesion of unknown etiology. It usually occurs in the first 2 decades of life. The most common sites are the metaphysio-epiphyseal areas of long bones or vertebrae with eccentric expansion. We present a 42-year-old female with a huge aneurysmal bone cyst of the pelvis with dumbbell-shaped expansion on the both side of the ili...

Clinically (Figure 1) a unilateral swelling, proptosis and obliteration of the nasolabial fold was noted. Intraoral examination revealed normal-appearing overlying mucosa. A pantomograph 2) demonstrates mixed diffuse expansile lesion thinning cortices affecting both jaws. 3D reconstruction 3) overview lesions' extent. CBCT interpretation (Figures 4 5) indicated engrossment frontal, parietal, te...
