[Outcome of treating solitary osseous cyst with acetate methylprednisolone injections].
Among 24 children with solitary osseous cyst of various localization treated by local methyl prednisolone injections, 20 children had excellent and good results. The radiological criteria of evaluation were as follows: full rebuilding of the bone in the site of cyst--excellent result, irregular trabecular structure or widening of the bone remain--good result, small radiological translucency with simultaneous full rebuilding of width of the cortical bone, securing proper mechanical resistance--fair result, absence of radiological traits of rebuilding--poor result. In each patient, 4-6 instillations were performed every 3 months. Subsidence of local compression and auscultative pain, deliberation of balloon inflation of the metaphysis, normalization of width of the cortical bone, rebuilding of the spongy bone and "going away" of the epiphyseal cartilage from the cyst have been observed.
