Article Synopsis
  • - The aneurysmal bone cyst is a benign bone tumor that creates blood-filled cavities and is relatively rare, making up about 1% of bone tumors globally.
  • - This case discusses a pediatric patient with a cervical spine aneurysmal bone cyst, who experienced muscle pain and movement difficulties but improved under a multidisciplinary treatment approach involving surgery, embolization, radiation, and bisphosphonates.
  • - The study highlights that a multidisciplinary strategy significantly enhanced the patient's quality of life and functionality, although further research is needed to establish standardized therapeutic protocols for such cases.

Background: Radiomics refers to the acquisition of traces of quantitative features that are usually non-perceptible to human vision and are obtained from different imaging techniques and subsequently transformed into high-dimensional data. Diffuse midline gliomas (DMG) represent approximately 20% of pediatric CNS tumors, with a median survival of less than one year after diagnosis. We aimed to identify which radiomics can discriminate DMG tumor regions (viable tumor and peritumoral edema) from equivalent midline normal tissue (EMNT) in patients with the positive H3.
