ABSTRACT
There are several modalities for treatment of unicameral bone cyst. One of these modalities is the use of calcium phosphate as a bone substitute to fill the cyst after curettage. Thirteen cases of simple bone cysts of the upper humerus were treated by this method. The patients were followed up for 1 to 4 years. The success rate was 92.3%. These results were compared with other studies using autogenous bone graft or intralesional injection of prednisolone
