“…All were expansile and ranged in appearance from completely lytic to septated with a thin cortical shell. CT and MR imaging add important diagnostic information in the evaluation of aneurysmal bone cysts [3,4]. CT, because of its sensitivity to calcium, may show a thin rim not evident on radiographs, and helps to exclude calcified tumor matrix.…”

“…In computed tomography images of an ABC, the previous lesions can be observed, in addition to a visible aspect of cortical bone pressure trace and a thick bone crest (16). By contrast, MRI shows the clear boundary of the lobulated mass (22) and a characteristic liquid-liquid surface, particularly on T1-weighted images. In the present case, the signal intensity on the T1-weighted image was slightly higher compared with the muscle signal, while the T2-weighted image revealed an uneven cavity with a high signal, and a weak signal line between the sac intervals.…”

Abstract. An aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is a type of reactive reparative bone neoplasm that rarely occurs in the head and neck. To date, only a small number of cases have been previously reported. The present study reports the case of a 58-year-old male who presented with a tumor in the laryngeal cricoid cartilage, a rare position for a tumor, who subsequently underwent treatment by surgical resection. Based on the observations of the present study and a literature review, it was concluded that an ABC of the larynx can be identified based on a combination of radiology and postoperative histopathology examinations. However, following a tracheotomy and excision, the difficulty of performing tracheal cannula removal is inevitable. The present study described in detail a rare disease, ABC, occurring in the larynx. More cases are required for follow-up studies.

“…11 Hemorrhages within the cysts of variable ages are present, causing fluid levels due to settlement of blood products. CT scans show an expansile, irregular lytic lesion of bone with cortical destruction with 7,12 Ultrasound can detect the fluid levels in a plane perpendicular to the sonic beam. It is an inexpensive, safe and reliable method, particularly useful in young children.…”
