title: [Clinical, radiological and histopathological verification of cystic bone defects].
abstract: The authors make comparison of conformity between clinical and radiological diagnosis of cystic bone defects compared to outcomes of histopathological examination. It was based on clinical material from 1996-2006. 37 patients were included to the study, 19 women (51.4%) and 18 men (48.6%) aged between 17-72 years (average 42.5 years). The most frequent diagnosed cystic bone defects in analyzed clinical material were simple bone cysts, aneurismal bone cysts and primary, metastatic neoplastic pathology. Performed analysis has shown incoherent diagnosis of simple bone cyst and nonossifying fibroma. This confirms the need for clinical and radiological diagnosis verification by outcomes of histopathological examination.
