Le kyste osseux anevrysmal est une dystrophie osseuse pseudo-tumorale qui represente 1;5 a 4des tumeurs osseuses benignes. Nous rapportons l'observation d'un volumineux kyste anevrismal de la metaphyse humerale superieure gauche chez un enfant de 7 ans decouvert a l'occasion d'une fracture pathologique iterative. Il a ete pratique une exerese sous periostee du kyste avec reconstruction par transfert de fibula non vascularise. Les resultats fonctionnel et anatomique ont ete satisfaisant a 1 an de recul.. L'exerese kystique epargnant le cartilage de croissance avec reconstruction par fibula non vascularise est indiquee pour le traitement du kyste anevrysmal agressif des os longs

Giant cell tumor (GCT) is a distinctive lesion characterized by the proliferation of multinucleate giant cells in a stroma of mononuclear cells; it is generally seen in skeletally mature individuals. GCT of bone is usually found in the long bones around the knee or in the distal radius of young adults and is unusual in the flat bones. We report a case of GCT of the acromion of the scapula; with a secondary aneurysmal bone cyst; in a 30-year-old female. Based on our review of the eng language medical literature; it appears that the occurrence of a GCT along with a secondary aneurysmal bone cyst in flat bones (e.g.. the scapula) is very rare
