RESUMO
Aneurysmal bone cyst [ABC] is a locally destructive lesion of the bone rather than a true neoplasm. The pelvis is not an unusual site for an ABC; approximately 12% of cases occur in this location. We present a case of aneurysmal bone cyst [ABC] in ischiopubic ramus in a 22 years old male who presented with right inguinal swelling and pain. He was evaluated with X-ray and Magnetic Resonance Imaging MRI of pelvis. A review of literature regarding this rare site of ABC with radiological features is also described in this case report. ABC of ischiopubic ramus is an uncommon entity hence diagnosis of such a case requires proper clinical, radiological and histopathological evaluation to rule out other differential diagnoses of an expansile, osteolytic lesion. This will help in selecting a proper treatment plan

A 33-year male with history of penetrating trauma to left upper chest in 2006, presented through Medical unit to Radiology Department with complain of hemoptysis. Chest X-ray showed a soft tissue lesion in left upper lobe with a linear metallic foreign body. Contrast enhanced CT scan of chest and later CTA was performed which showed a saccular aneurysm arising from mediastinal part of left common aortic artery surrounded by thrombosis with a cylindrical linear metallic foreign body. He was planned for endovascular repair with stenting which he could not afford due to financial constraints. He is currently on conservative follow up. Vascular lesions can be serious complications resulting from blunt or penetrating trauma, when presenting with hemoptysis due to pseudaoneurysms formation even after so many years of trauma
