lüll Unicameral (simple) bone cysts Baig R; Eady JLSouth Med J 2006[Sep]; 99 (9): 966-76Since their original description by Virchow, simple bone cysts have been studied repeatedly. Although these defects are not true neoplasms, simple bone cysts may create major structural defects of the humerus, femur, and os calcis. They are commonly discovered incidentally when x-rays are taken for other reasons or on presentation due to a pathologic fracture. Various treatment strategies have been employed, but the only reliable predictor of success of any treatment strategy is the age of the patient; those being older than 10 years of age heal their cysts at a higher rate than those under age 10. The goal of management is the formation of a bone that can withstand the stresses of use by the patient without evidence of continued bone destruction as determined by serial radiographic follow-up. The goal is not a normal-appearing x-ray, but a functionally stable bone.|*Femur/diagnostic imaging[MESH]|*Humerus/diagnostic imaging[MESH]|Age Factors[MESH]|Bone Cysts/*diagnostic imaging/*therapy[MESH]|Child[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Radiography[MESH]|Steroids/therapeutic use[MESH] |
