ABSTRACT
Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are uncommon benign bone lesions that consist of blood-filled vascular spaces surrounded by fibrous tissue septa. Their diagnosis and surgical management are challenging in a war-torn region. In this case report, we present a rare case of a giant aneurysmal bone cyst located around the acetabulum in a 10-year-old female child who presented with an antalgic limp and left hip pain. The lesion was successfully treated with curettage and mixed autologous and synthetic bone grafts, and the follow-up for two years revealed a complete resolution of symptoms and radiological evidence of bone regeneration. This case highlights the successful surgical treatment of a challenging case of ABC in a difficult setting during the Syrian conflict.
