Aneurysmal bone cyst: a review of 65 patients

ConclusionCurettage is still the standard of treatment for ABC. Local recurrence does not depend on the use of adjuvant phenol as shown in this and other studies. Minimally invasive methods such as selective embolization and injections of sclerosing agents may result in healing or at least in tolerable persistence of residual lesions but needs repetitive treatments and does not show homogenous results throughout the institutions. Denosumab appears to be an additional option, especially in surgically critical locations such as the spine or the sacrum.
