Abstract: The simple bone cyst, also called traumatic bone cyst or solitary bone cyst, is an uncommon cavity of

the jaws and occurs on the mandibular symphysis and body, but rarely on the mandibular condyle. It is generally

asymptomatic, usually detected incidentally during routine radiological assessment. This article presents a bone cystic

lesion affecting the right mandibular ramus in a 11 year-old female patient with no history of previous trauma. A well

demarcated oval shaped radiolucent lesion was observed on the right mandibular ramus in panoramic radiography.

The advanced imaging techniques were performed to assess the exact location of the lesion and its association with

the surrounded soft tissue. The patient underwent this cystic lesion enucleated under general anesthesia and the

surgical exploration has demonstrated the empty cavity without the epithelial layer. The postoperative panoramic

radiography which was performed after 6 months of follow up showed bony formation. The simple bone cyst is

a rare jawbone lesion with an unclear etiology. It is generally associated with a good prognosis and a low rate of

recurrence. Trauma history must be questioned.
