Summary

The treatment of a patient with an aneurysmal bone cyst involving the pelvis by selective arterial embolism is described. After one year pain relief is complete and radiologically the lesion is healing with increased density of the cyst wall and intracystic trabecular bone formation.

Avec un an de recul, les douleurs ont complètement disparu.
