ABSTRACT

Aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is a non-malignant, locally destructive, blood-filled lesion in the bone that tends to grow aggressively. A young girl presented with a rapid recurrence after aggressive surgery of a large symptomatic sacral-spinal ABC. After a multidisciplinary tumour board, she was successfully treated with sclerotherapy and monthly intravenous denosumab. The patient has maintained asymptomatic for over 36 months now and has returned to full activity and strength. She never required surgery and has had radiologic resolution of the lesions. Treatment of recurrent ABC requires a multidisciplinary team approach. We believe this to be the first report to use this combined therapy to provide an alternative to morbid surgery for children with ABCs.
