Limited research has analysed paediatric shoulder girdle aneurysmal bone cyst management and outcomes. This study analysed locations affected, investigations, treatments and recurrence in children treated at the London Bone Tumour Unit between 1998 and 2004 and in English and French literature between 1956 and 2004. The proximal humerus and clavicle are most frequently affected whereas scapula involvement is rare. Radiographs, computed tomography and MRI are valuable. Sole curettage of clavicle and scapula lesions has low recurrence rates. Proximal humerus lesions recur most frequently. Curettage alone or with cementation are the most appealing treatments but are associated with significant recurrence.

Introduction: Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are benign, locally destructive, blood-filled reactive lesions of the bone most commonly presenting as pain or mass effect. Most are frequently located in the proximal humerus, distal femur, proximal tibia, spine, uncommonly the sacrum, and rarely the sacroiliac (SI) joint. We present a rare case of ABC in the SI joint and its recurrence treated with percutaneous intralesional doxycycline ablation and the corresponding outcome.

Background: Only 2% to 6% aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) involve the cranial region, and even fewer show sphenoid and orbital involvement. The spheno-orbital ABC is prone to misdiagnosis and can result in intraoperative bleeding and residual lesions. The study was to summarize the clinical and therapeutic characteristics of patients with spheno-orbital ABC in children.
