Description

This lecture examines aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs)—benign yet destructive, highly vascular lesions that predominantly affect the juvenile spine.

It details how rapid vertebral destruction causes localized pain, structural deformity, and severe neurological deficits via spinal cord or nerve root compression.

Finally, it highlights essential radiological indicators alongside modern surgical decompression and selective arterial embolization strategies.
