Background: Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are benign, blood-filled neoplasms causing bone destruction, often requiring resection. However, challenges arise, especially at the cranio-cervical junction, where proximity to critical structures limits removal. Non-surgical options include selective arterial embolization (SAE) as main treatment, while Denosumab and centrifugated bone marrow emerge as experimental alternatives.

Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are rare benign osteolytic tumors which occur most frequently within the first two decades of life and can lead to pathological fractures. They have characteristic imaging and histologic features and have historically been classified into two types: primary ABCs, which are true neoplasms linked to specific oncogenes, and secondary ABCs, which are preceded by other bone lesions. The occurrence of multiple concurrent primary ABCs is exceedingly rare; with only a few cases reported in the published literature.

Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are aggressive, osteolytic lesions usually seen in childhood and young adulthood. The patient's age, location, and behavior of the lesion in the bone may cause patients to present with different clinical findings. Appropriate treatment of these rare, aggressive bone lesions is essential for recurrence.

Background: Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are slow-growing, expansile bone tumors most often observed in the long bones and lumbar and thoracic spine. Anterior column ABCs of the spine are rare, and few cases have described their surgical management, particularly for lesions with extension into the odontoid process and the bilateral C2 pedicles. In the present case, the authors describe a two-stage strategy for resection of a symptomatic 2.

Background: Preoperative estimation of intraoperative blood loss is essential for its management and literature is lacking with respect to factors influencing blood loss in aneurysmal bone cysts (ABC) surgery. The purpose of this study is to identify risk factors and predictors for blood loss in ABC surgery.

Methods: An IRB-approved retrospective review was performed from 2011 to 2021 at a pediatric tertiary care center.
