Combined curettage, fibular and iliac bone grafting, and dynamic hip screw fixation for a femoral neck simple bone cyst in a child with excellent functional outcome: a case report

This case underscores the value of a tailored, multi-component surgical technique in managing simple bone cyst-associated pathological fractures in pediatric weight-bearing bones. The approach resulted in excellent structural stability and functional recovery, with the patient regaining independent, unrestricted ambulation by 10 weeks postoperatively and no complications observed.

Abstract

This case underscores the value of a tailored, multi-component surgical technique in managing simple bone cyst-associated pathological fractures in pediatric weight-bearing bones. The approach resulted in excellent structural stability and functional recovery, with the patient regaining independent, unrestricted ambulation by 10 weeks postoperatively and no complications observed.
