Bennett & El-Khoury — 2006-11-14 23:29:51 GMT

From Applied Radiology General Approach to Lytic Bone Lesions Posted 05/21/2004 D. Lee Bennett, MD, MA; Georges Y. El-Khoury, MD Abstract and Introduction Abstract When interpreting musculoskeletal radiographs, a radiologist must be able to identify a lytic lesion and provide a definitive diagnosis or a reasonable differential diagnosis for the lesion. This article addresses these issues and details a rational and systematic approach to such lesions. Medscape

eMedicine Radiology Topic Introduction Differentials Radiograph CT Scan MRI Nuclear Medicine Intervention Pictures Bibliography Background: The simple bone cyst is a common, benign, fluid-containing lesion, usually occurring in the metaphysis of long bones. The cause of the lesion is unknown. Bloodgood recognized it as a different entity from other cystic bone lesions in 1910. Jaffe and Lichtenstein provided a detailed discussion of simple bone cysts in 1942.

Unicameral Bone Cyst

B. Alami-Harandi MD et al — 2006-11-12 23:29:51 GMT

Abstract Background-3% of biopsied primary bone lesion are bone cyst. It involves mostly proximal end of femur and humerus. Most popular method of treatment is curettage and bone graft or injection of hydrocortisone in the cyst. Methods-Between 1993-1997, 30 patients with UBC of proximal end of humerus were treated in two groups. 1) Curettage and bone graft; 2) Injection of hydrocortisone. Results-The healing rate in surgical patient was 85.7% and injected cases was 75%. Average healing time in surgical cases was 11.6 months and in injected cases was 13.9 months. Conclusion-Considering that the result of two groups are more or less the same, it is better to treat UBC of proximal end of humerus by injection of hydrocortisone in the cyst.

A unicameral bone cyst (UBC) is a common benign fluid-filled lesion found almost exclusively in children. Much has been written about the diagnosis and management of these lesions, and evidence of a variety of successful treatment strategies can be found in the literature. The orthopedic entity called a UBC is not believed to be a new phenomenon. Lagier et al identified a UBC in the femur from the remains of a child from medieval times (Lagier, 1987). Virchow also recognized such bone cysts in humans in the late 1870s
