Rev Bras Ortop

Instituto de Ortopedia e Traumatologia, Passo Fundo, RS, Brazil.

Published: February 2018

Osseous tumors of the hindfoot are not usual in the literature, the diagnosis in these cases is difficult and can often go unnoticed. Besides that, surgery and reconstruction are complicated due to the complexity of the local anatomy, which makes these lesions even more challenging for the orthopedic oncological professionals. On the following article two cases of aneurysmal bone cyst of the hindfoot are reported, as well as the alternatives and peculiarities in conducting these cases according to the oncological principles. When the subject are hindfoot tumor lesions, the early diagnosis is extremely important, as well as the proper staging and the management of the case by the orthopedic oncological professional according to oncological principles.

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.

Benign Bone Tumors of the Hand: Beyond Enchondromas.

J Am Acad Orthop Surg

November 2024

From the Department of Orthopedic Surgery, SUNY Upstate Medical University, Syracuse, NY (Albanese, Lynch, and Damron), and the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, VA (Eswaran).

Beyond enchondromas, the most common bone tumors of the hand, there are numerous less common benign bone tumors and mimickers with which orthopaedic and hand surgeons should be familiar. These include other benign cartilage tumors, cystic lesions, osteogenic tumors, giant cell tumor, and fibrous dysplasia. Particularly unique lesions include bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation (Nora lesion), florid reactive periostitis, turret exostosis (acquired osteochondroma), giant cell reparative granuloma (solid aneurysmal bone cyst), and epidermoid cyst.

Synchronous primary aneurysmal bone cysts: A rare case report and literature review.

Radiol Case Rep

March 2025

Department of Radiology, John H. Stroger, Jr. Hospital of Cook County, 1969 West Ogden Avenue, Chicago, Illinois 60612, USA.

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.

Transoral resection of a symptomatic odontoid process aneurysmal bone cyst: illustrative case.

J Neurosurg Case Lessons

January 2025

Departments of Neurosurgery, NYU Langone Health, New York, New York.

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.
