Magnetic resonance imaging of calcaneal aneurysmal bone cyst.
A 7-year-old black male presented with a lytic, expansile lesion of the calcaneus. This lesion was studied with conventional x-rays as well as MRI. The MR examination demonstrated a multiloculated lesion with material of a high- and low-signal intensity appreciated within each loculation. Pathologic review of the lesion demonstrated an aneurysmal bone cyst.
