Disease relevance of Bone Cysts, Aneurysmal

• Giant-cell lesions of the paranasal sinuses, including the giant-cell reparative granuloma, the brown tumor of hyperparathyroidism, the true giant-cell tumor, cherubism, and the aneurysmal bone cyst, are uncommon entities [1].
• An 11-year-old girl presenting with neck pain was diagnosed as having an aneurysmal bone cyst involving the posterior arch of C1 [2].
• Up to one-half of all cases of aneurysmal bone cysts are found in association with other tumors, benign or malignant, and up to 15% of chondroblastomas are combined with an aneurysmal bone cyst (4) [3].
• Furthermore, immunoperoxidase staining for Factor VIII related antigen was performed to help differentiate between the aneurysmal bone cyst and a central hemangioma and then to elucidate the pathogenesis of the former [4].
• The cases included three resections for benign tumors (two fibromyxoma and relapsing aneurysmal bone cyst) and one hemifacial microsomia [5].

High impact information on Bone Cysts, Aneurysmal

• USP6 (Tre2) fusion oncogenes in aneurysmal bone cyst [6].
• Percutaneous treatment of pediatric aneurysmal bone cyst at C1: a minimally invasive alternative: a case report [2].
• A 4-year-old boy developed progressive neck pain and an expansile osteogenic lesion of C2; the diagnosis was an aneurysmal bone cyst [7].
• We report the nonoperative treatment of a recurrent, multilevel spinal aneurysmal bone cyst by injection of 32P chromic phosphate colloid into the cyst [8].
• CONCLUSIONS: Rates of local control of almost 90 percent can be achieved with thorough curettage with use of a mechanical burr and without use of liquid nitrogen, phenol, or other adjuvants in patients who have an aneurysmal bone cyst of an extremity [9].

Chemical compound and disease context of Bone Cysts, Aneurysmal

• Transoral vertebroplasty for a fractured C2 aneurysmal bone cyst [10].
• CONCLUSION: Evaluation of aneurysmal bone cyst may be completed with CT scanning and more specifically with MRI MRI coronal T2, weighted images are advantageous for visualization of the main cystic lesion and any additional cysts [11].
• Musculoskeletal images. C3 aneurysmal bone cyst [12].
• Successful treatment of two cases of aneurysmal bone cyst by cobalt 60 gamma radiation using low doses over prolonged periods (1400 rad in seven weeks and 1600 rad in eight months) is reported [13].
• Multilevel vertebral body replacement with a titanium mesh spacer for aneurysmal bone cyst: technical note [14].

Anatomical context of Bone Cysts, Aneurysmal

• Computerized tomography of the neck revealed a unicameral (single-chambered) aneurysmal bone cyst involving the C3 vertebra [15].
• Assessment of sacrum scalloping in NF-1 caused by aneurysmal bone cyst is described [16].

Gene context of Bone Cysts, Aneurysmal

• Aneurysmal bone cysts originating in the craniofacial region have seldom been reported in Taiwan. A case of aneurysmal bone cyst arising in the right mandible of a 15-year-old Chinese boy was presented with both the roentgenographic and microscopic findings [4].
• Radiographically, they may be confused with metastatic carcinoma, plasmacytoma, lymphoma, chordoma and even benign lesions, particularly aneurysmal bone cyst and brown tumour of hyperparathyroidism [17].
• The authors report two cases of osteogenic sarcoma which presented under the false diagnosis of aneurysmal bone cyst and benign fibrous histiocytoma respectively [18].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Bone Cysts, Aneurysmal

• The microscopic differential diagnosis of giant-cell tumor of the sphenoid region includes giant-cell reparative granuloma, aneurysmal bone cyst, fibrous dysplasia, and "brown tumor" of hyperparathyroidism [19].
