Transcatheter embolization effectively treats aneurysmal bone cysts (ABC), particularly in pelvic locations. This minimally invasive technique offers a promising therapeutic option for highly vascular bone lesions.

Area of Science:

  • Interventional Radiology
  • Orthopedic Oncology
  • Vascular Surgery

Background:

  • Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABC) are benign, expansile, and often highly vascular bone lesions.
  • Pelvic bone involvement in ABC presents unique challenges for surgical management due to anatomical complexity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and outcomes of transcatheter embolization for treating aneurysmal bone cysts.
  • To assess embolization as a primary treatment and as a preoperative measure for ABC.

Main Methods:

  • Seven cases of aneurysmal bone cysts, predominantly in the pelvic region, were treated with transcatheter embolization.
  • Embolization utilized tissue adhesive for permanent occlusion and Gelfoam for preoperative procedures.
  • Histological diagnosis via open biopsy, with plain radiographs and CT scans used for outcome assessment.

Main Results:

  • Three of five lesions treated definitively showed complete ossification.
  • Partial remineralization and reconstitution were observed in other cases.
  • Preoperative embolizations facilitated successful en bloc resection with reduced blood loss.

Conclusions:

  • Transcatheter embolization is a highly effective treatment for aneurysmal bone cysts, especially those in difficult anatomical sites.
  • The procedure is suitable for both definitive treatment and as an adjunct to surgery, minimizing blood loss.
