ABSTRACT
Intraosseous pneumatocyst is a benign, gas-filled, cystic lesion, and is commonly encountered in iliac bone or sacrum. Other locations of this lesion following trauma are rare, and only a handful of isolated cases have been reported. The pathogenesis and etiologies of this uncommon entity are various and it can present a diagnostic challenge. Only four previous cases have described the natural course of intravertebral pneumatocysts. Here, the authors report a rare case of traumatic pneumatocyst, which resolved rapidly without further complication. Possible pathogenic mechanisms are discussed and reviews of literatures are included.
