title: Aneurysmal bone cyst versus hemangioma of the mandible. Report of a long-term follow-up of a self-limiting case.
abstract: The aneurysmal bone cyst is an enigmatic and misnamed lesion displaying variable etiopathogenic and histologic characteristics. The aneurysmal bone cyst may appear as a primary lesion or as a secondary lesion associated with other pathologic entities. This article presents a probable self-limiting lesion that provides an opportunity to present an approach to classifying aneurysmal bone lesions.
