Abstract
Fibrous dysplasia is a well-known benign dysplastic process of bone. However, fibrous dysplasia is very uncommon in the spine. Further, to our knowledge, coexistence of fibrous dysplasia and aneurysmal bone cyst in the spine has not been reported. This manuscript presents a patient who had both processes involving the cervical spine.
