“…Presence of giant cells and histiocytes adherent to stromal fragments in a young female with normal serum calcium, parathyroid hormone and phosphorus levels is strongly suggestive of CGCG ( 3 ). ABC is a non-neoplastic and non-odontogenic cyst, accounting for <2% cases in jaw bones ( 16 ). Radiological appearance of an eccentric, unilocular, radio lucent lesion with cortical expansion though suggestive of ABC, is not pathognomonic, and needs to be confirmed on histopathology ( 16 ).…”

BackgroundFNAC of intraosseous jaw lesions has not been widely utilized for diagnosis due to rarity and diversity of these lesions, limited experience and lack of well established cytological features. Aim of the study was to determine the role of FNAC in the diagnosis of intraosseous jaw swellings. Material and Methods42 patients underwent FNAC over a period of 7 years (2007-2013), of which 37 (88.1%) aspirates were diagnostic. Histopathology correlation was available in 33 cases and diagnostic accuracy of FNAC was calculated.ResultsLesions were categorized into inflammatory 3, cysts/hamartomas 15 and neoplasms 19. Mandibular and maxillary involvement was seen in 21 and 16 patients respectively. Of these, benign cysts and malignant lesions were commonest, accounting for 27% lesions (10 cases) each. One case of cystic ameloblastoma was misdiagnosed as odontogenic cyst on cytology. Overall, sensitivity and specificity of FNAC were 94.7% and 100% respectively with a diagnostic accuracy of 97.3%. Definitive categorization of giant cell lesions, fibro-osseous lesions, odontogenic tumors and cystic lesions was not feasible on FNAC.ConclusionsFNAC is a simple, safe and minimally invasive first line investigation which can render an accurate preoperative diagnosis of intraosseous jaw lesions, especially the malignant ones in the light of clinic-radiological correlation. Key words: Jaw swellings, intraosseous, FNAC.

Aneurysmal bone cysts are rare benign lesions of bone tissue. They are composed of vascular spaces blood-filled and surrounded by fibrous tissue septa. They are considered as pseudo cysts because of lack of epithelial lining. Here, we describe a giant case of ABC in 12-year-old female child having a massive swelling over the right side of the mandible treated with segmental resection and reconstruction with a reconstruction plate. Case is also discussed with the review of literature.

“… 5 From a histopathological point of view, ABC can be classified into three types: conventional (vascular) type, which is a rapidly growing, extensive, damaging lesion, leading to cortical breach and soft tissue aggression; solid type, and a third mixed type of the other two types. 6 …”

“… 7 Magnetic resonance imaging scans regularly show an extensive tumour with eccentric osteolysis and a polylobulated aspect with fluid-fluid levels. 6 The differential diagnosis for an aneurysmal cyst can be essential bone cyst, giant cell tumour, osteoblastoma, and telangiectatic osteosarcoma. 2 A biopsy is mandatory for an aneurysmal cyst because telangiectatic osteosarcoma needs to be considered as a differential diagnosis.…”

Aggressive development of an aneurysmal bone cyst of the proximal femur in a paediatric patient: a case report

et al. 2017

We report development of an aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) that was located in the proximal region of the femur in an 11-year-old girl. Over a period of 30 weeks, the ABC showed fulminant local progression, with destruction of the bone, which led to an abrupt loss of function of the left hip. The standard tumour treatment protocol was followed. We performed embolisation of the tumour followed by a biopsy, which confirmed the diagnosis of ABC. The outcome was negative with total destruction of the proximal third of the femur, despite repeating the embolisation. Because of the unfavourable local progression, a second biopsy was performed and we reconfirmed the initial diagnosis. The final decision regarding the therapeutic approach was total hip arthroplasty with femoral reconstruction with a prosthesis. Following this treatment, the patient’s outcome was favourable, with complete recovery of function and no local relapse.
