Among these, the simple bone cyst (SBC) and aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) are intriguing bone pathologies still rarely studied together. This retrospective study aimed to present the long-term case series of patients with jaw pseudocysts focusing on the clinical, radiographic, and transoperative aspects. Material and Methods A retrospective case series of patients with SBC and ABC was performed. Clinical, radiographic, and transoperative aspects of both pseudocysts were reviewed from the histopathological archives of 20,469 cases between 1959-2012. All descriptive data were summarized.

Aneurysmal bone cyst of the spine in adult patients: A systematic review and comparison of primary vs secondary lesions.
2021
Background: Spine aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) rarely occur in adults. Primary and secondary lesions may show some differences and require appropriate treatments. Objective: To systematically review the literature on adult spine ABCs. Methods: PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, and Web-of-Science were searched. Clinical-radiological features, treatments, and outcomes were analyzed and compared between primary vs secondary adult spine ABCs. Results: We included 80 studies comprising 220 patients. Primary spine ABCs were more frequent (76.4%). Main symptoms were lower-back-pain (42.8%) and motor deficits (31.2%). Tumors were mostly thoracic (31.4%) or cervical (26.8%), showing lytic (70.4%) and/or cysti…
