[CT characteristics of solitary long bone cysts before and after treatment]

Computed tomography was used to study the X-ray morphological characteristics of femoral and humoral bone cysts and the course of a reparative process after surgery in 23 patients with varying activity of solitary bone cysts. Treatment using transosseous osteosynthesis, intraosseous armoring, and therapeutic and diagnostic punctures in patients with solitary bone cysts could yield the most active osteoproductive effect and cause a considerable increase in the density of cyst contents in active and activity-losing stages, which was most evident around the intraosseous wires. Patients with late-stage cysts were found to have an osteogenic effect, mainly in an area of osteotomy.
