Abstract

A non-neoplastic intraosseous pseudocyst devoid of epithelial lining is a classified for traumatic bone cyst. The most of cases are caused due to low-grade infection, intraosseous vascular abnormalities, degeneration of bone tumors, local alteration of bone metabolism and also by trauma. Traumatic bone cyst is associated with representing resolving fibro-osseous lesion. This case was accidently noted and with asymptomatic condition in which according to radiological condition and histological finding it was noted as “Traumatic Bone Cyst”.

Summary

Introduction

Traumatic bone cyst (TBC) was described first by Lucas and Blum in 1929 who coined the term “Traumatic bone cyst”. It is defined as a “non-neoplastic intraosseous pseudocyst devoid of epithelial lining” by the World Health Organization (WHO). It has been referred by different terminologies like a simple bone cyst, hemorrhagic cyst, idiopathic bone cavity, progressive bone cavity, and solitary unicameral bone cyst. The trauma-hemorrhage theory proposed trauma followed by degeneration of clot to be responsible for the development of the cyst. Most cases of traumatic cyst have no history of trauma to be associated. Our case report discusses a rare variant of TBC associated with fibrous hypertrophy
