Aneurysmal bone cysts in the hand.
The authors emphasize the rarity of aneurysmal bone cysts localised in the hand. They report three cases and describe the radiographic, macroscopic and histological appearances. These three cases were out of a total of 350 tumours of the hand. The surgical treatment is described, also the differential diagnosis and the criteria used to select the type of surgery adopted.
