An aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is a non-malignant, skeletal tumor that is extremely rare and most commonly presents within the first two decades of life. Genetic mutation of the gene on chromosome 17 remains to be the most commonly accepted reasoning as ABC's etiology remains unknown. As the radiographic appearance of ABC is quite similar to other kinds of bone cysts, a histological diagnosis is often required to attain a definitive diagnosis. Curettage remains the gold standard treatment with high chances of local recurrence. Evidence has shown the beneficial applications of administering a sclerosing agent. Further trials would improve the level of evidence available for physicians to make a better management plan. We have demonstrated the treatment of an aneurysm bone cyst of the proximal humerus on a 5-year-old female in this report, which might be utilized as a reference for future procedures.
骨动脉瘤样囊肿（ABC）是一种非恶性的骨骼肿瘤，极为罕见，最常出现在生命的前二十年。由于ABC的病因尚不清楚，17号染色体上基因的基因突变仍是最被广泛接受的病因推断。由于ABC的影像学表现与其他类型的骨囊肿非常相似，通常需要进行组织学诊断才能得出明确诊断。刮除术仍然是金标准治疗方法，但局部复发几率较高。有证据表明使用硬化剂有有益效果。进一步的试验将提高可供医生制定更好治疗方案的证据水平。在本报告中，我们展示了对一名5岁女性肱骨近端骨动脉瘤样囊肿的治疗，这可能为未来的手术提供参考。
