Aneurysmal bone cysts of the jaws: CT and MR findings.
Two cases of aneurysmal bone cyst of the jaws, one in the mandible and the other in the maxilla, are reported in young girls 7 and 15 years old. One was a primary lesion; the other was associated with fibrous dysplasia. In both cases CT and MR demonstrated characteristic fluid-fluid levels. The diagnosis was confirmed after biopsy and surgical resection of the lesions.
