“…5,31,52 The primary form of the lesion, the predominant form, is thought to be caused by traumatic or anomalous venous disruption in the osseous diploë, which causes the lesion to expand. 41,42 Although the lesion is classified as benign, malignant transformation has been reported in 3% of the cases. 7,46 Up to one third of the cases of ABC are secondary in nature.…”

This is especially true if the lesion is located in the skull base, for example in the roof and/or the medial and lateral walls of the orbit, the paranasal sinuses, and the petrous temporal bone.…”

Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) of the cranium in children are rare, with only 3 to 6% of cases occurring in this anatomical location. Consequently, not much is known about ABCs and the most effective modality of treatment. The authors present the cases of three patients with ABCs and discuss the origin, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, pathological features, and imaging characteristics of these lesions. Furthermore the authors review the literature to find out the current treatment options for these lesions.

“…The walls of the blood pools do not contain elastic elements or smooth muscle and thus do not mimic blood vessels. 5, 16 Before any therapy can be considered, it must be determined whether the aneurysmal bone cyst is associated with another condition. If a more aggressive lesion is present, treatment must be directed toward the more aggressive component.…”

An aneurysmal bone cyst is neither a cyst nor a neoplasm. The current theory is that the lesion is an intraosseous arteriovenous rnattorrnatlon.?" Thus, it is a benign blood-filled lesion with a cyst-like wall predominantly of fibrous tissue and surrounded by a thin layer of periosteal new bone. 14,15,19,21 The foot is a relatively uncommon location for an aneurysmal bone cyst. To our knowledge, no previous cases have been reported in the navicular. In the case reported here, an extensive lesion in the navicular was treated with an en bloc resection and intercalary bone grafting to maintain medial column length. CASE REPORTA 25-year-old woman in otherwise good health presented complaining of left midfoot pain and swelling for 3 years, worsening over the preceding 3 months. She stated that she could walk approximately two blocks, after which she needed to stop because of pain. A 3 x 3 cm firm, moderately tender mass was palpated on the medial aspect of her left midfoot. She had full range of motion at her ankle and limited inversion and eversion secondary to pain.A roentgenogram and computed tomographic image showed an expansile, lytic lesion in the navicular bone (Fig. 1). No other associated lesions were seen.Intraoperatively, a specimen was sent for frozen section yielding a preliminary diagnosis of giant cell tumor. The tourniquet was deflated while awaiting the pathology results, which resulted in brisk bleeding from the biopsy site. Because the tumor represented either an aneurysmal bone cyst (our preoperative diagnosis) or a giant cell tumor, both of which have significant recurrence rates, we elected to resect the
