Description
Summary:Aneurysmal bone cyst （ABC） is an uncommon benign lesion with a reported incidence rate of 0.14 cases for every 1,000,000 people.ABC can occur in any part of the skeletal system but is mainly detected in the long bones.Orbit involvement is rare （〈1% of all ABCs）.In this article,we presented two female patients aged 49 and 33 years old respectively who suffered from ABC.After successful surgical removal of the cyst via frontal craniotomy and simple curettage,the patients recovered well and have been in good health throughout the 2.5-4.5 years of follow-up.
