En bloc resection of aneurysmal bone cyst at proximal fibula in skeletally immature individual presented with neuropraxia: a case report
Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are usually benign but locally destructive, blood-filled reactive lesion of the bone. Although a wider age group may be affected, usually they are seen in patients less than 20 years of age, with a more female preponderance. Most common sites include metaphysis of femur, proximal leg bone and then humerus. Aneurysmal bone cyst of proximal end of fibula is a rare and uncommon. Here, we report a case of 17-year-old female with classic histologic, clinical, and radiographic findings that was treated by en bloc resection.
