Assessment and management of periacetabular aneurysmal bone cysts—a series of four cases

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) in the periacetabular region can be challenging to treat because they create unique problems, given their proximity to articular cartilage and a significant weight bearing surface. This case series details the assessment and treatment of four periacetabular ABCs with a review of pertinent current literature. Treatment approaches used include curettage with 6% phenol chemical adjuvant, type III hemipelvectomy, serial image-guided sclerotherapy injections, and in one case, an exostotic lesion was treated with hip arthroscopy.
