Abstract
Our experience with meta-, diaphysectomy in nine cases of benign cystic bone lesion is reported. Non-invasive treatment, such as injection of methylprednisolone into cyst cavity, is preferable, especially for a cyst of non-weight bearing bone. Surgical treatment, however, is needed if the risk of recurrent fracture is to be avoided and when it is not practical to restrict the activities of a child during the growing years to prevent a refracture. Roentgenographic end results were evaluated and assessed by the criteria proposed by Baker and all cases were rated 5 with no significant roentgenographic evidence of cyst.
