Abstract
Aneurysmal bone cyst is a locally aggressive benign tumor accounting for 3 % of all benign bone tumors. It most commonly arises from ends of long bones and relatively rare in flat bones. Clavicle is a very rare site for bone tumors with secondaries more common than primaries. Very few cases of aneurysmal bone cyst have been reported in literature. We hereby report interesting and a rare case of aneurysmal bone cyst of medial end of clavicle in a eight year old lady which was treated with extended curettage and calcium sulfate bone grafting.Entities:
