We treated 23 simple bone cysts by the multiple drill-hole method and reviewed them a mean of 5 (2–10) years later. 11 cysts were located in the humerus, 9 in the femur, 2 in the tibia, and 1 in the pubis. The cysts recurred in 15 cases after the initial operation.12 recurrent cysts were treated with reoperations. At the follow-up, good bone formation with no sign of recurrence was seen in 15 cases. A residual cyst was found in 8 cases, but further treatment was not considered necessary.Downloads
