Treatment of Fibula Aneurysmal Bone Cyst in a Children

Abstract

Aneurysmal bone cyst is a benign expansile bone lesion that mainly affects children and young adults. Despite its benign name, some of these lesions have a remarkable ability to destroy bone and grow rapidly. Treatment options of aneurysmal bone cysts include complete resection, curettage, curettage with bone grafting, selective arterial embolization (as a primary treatment or preoperative adjuvant therapy), and percutaneous injection of fibrosing agent. When possible complete excision is the treatment of choice. This study, we present a pediatric case of fibula aneurysmal bone cysts successfully treated with complete resection.

Bir Çocuk Olguda Fibula Anevrizmal Kemik Kistinin Tedavisi

Abstract

Anevrizmal kemik kisti, iyi huylu, genişleme özelligi olan ve daha çok çocuk ve gençlerde görülen kemik lezyonlarıdır. İyi huylu olmalarına karşın, bu lezyonlardan bazıları hızlı büyüme ve kemikte harabiyet yapma yeteneğine sahiptirler. Tedavi seçenekleri arasında tam rezeksiyon, küretaj, kemik greftleme ile küretaj, selektif arteryel embolizasyon (primer tedavi olarak veya preoperatif terapi) ve perkütan fibrozan ajan enjeksiyonu sayılabilir. Anevrizmal kemik kistinin tedavisinde tam çıkarma en iyi yöntemdir. Bu çalışmada, tam rezeksiyon ile başarılı tedavi edilmiş fibula anevrizmal kemik kisti olan bir çocuk olguyu sunmaktayız.
