Summary

Surface aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are rare, often affecting females and occurring on forearm bones, tibia, and femur. Imaging helps differentiate subperiosteal, cortical, and mixed types for diagnosis.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Radiology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are benign, expansile, osteolytic bone lesions.
  • Surface ABCs represent a distinct subtype with specific clinical and imaging characteristics.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To delineate the characteristic imaging features of surface aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs).
  • To categorize surface ABCs based on their location (subperiosteal, cortical, mixed) and discuss differential diagnoses.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 23 histologically confirmed surface ABCs from a larger cohort of 144 ABCs.
  • Radiographs were used for all cases; CT and MR imaging were utilized in 18 cases.

Main Results:

  • Surface ABCs demonstrated a female predilection and commonly affected the forearm, tibia, and femur.

  • Imaging allowed classification into subperiosteal (11), cortical (8), and mixed (4) subtypes, each with distinct radiographic appearances.

    • Conclusions:

    • Surface ABCs have characteristic imaging findings that aid in their identification.
    • Radiographic, CT, and MR imaging are crucial for categorizing surface ABCs and guiding differential diagnosis.
