Abstract
Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are benign bone tumors typically affecting children. Mandibular ABCs can be difficult to treat surgically, given their sensitive anatomic location and functional and cosmetic impacts. This report presents 3 pediatric patients with mandibular ABCs successfully treated with image-guided percutaneous doxycycline sclerotherapy. The first 2 patients presented with pain and swelling, whereas the third was diagnosed incidentally. Sclerotherapy was the sole treatment for cases 1 and 2, whereas case 3 had sclerotherapy after recurrence following prior surgeries. In all 3 patients, clinical symptoms resolved, and stable bone healing was documented on long-term follow-up. There were no functional or cosmetic complications. Doxycycline sclerotherapy is a safe and viable treatment for primary and recurrent mandibular ABCs.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
