Direct Ethibloc injection in benign bone cysts: preliminary report on four patients.
Benign bone cysts often require treatment in order to prevent pathological fracture. We report preliminary experience with percutaneous injection of Ethibloc in four children (8-15 years old) presenting with benign bone cysts: two were aneurysmal bone cysts, two were unicameral bone cysts. All the patients were followed up for 12-18 months. Healing was satisfactory in all cases and no complications occurred.
