Abstract
Aneurysmal bone cysts are benign, expansile lesions that are not at all uncommon in the lower extremity. These lesions are difficult to recognize clinically. This paper is a thorough review of the current literature regarding aneurysmal bone cysts. After this review, one should be able to diagnose and appropriately treat aneurysmal bone cysts. Also provided is a case report with classic histologic, clinical, and radiographic findings that was treated by en bloc resection.
