Özet

Background: Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are benign lesions that are usually treated with intralesional procedures. The clinical behavior of ABCs is reported to be more aggressive in younger patients, with high recurrence rates after surgical treatment by several authors. The purpose of this study was to review longitudinally the demographic data and outcome of current surgical techniques in children with ABC treated at a single institution and to determine the possible risk factors for recurrence, which may be detected at initial examination, including age, presenting complaint, and radiological characteristics.
