The essential, solitary, or unicameral bone cyst is a cystic bone disorder of uncertain origin that results in a pseudo-tumor-like lesion. He’s the third most common bone lesion after non-ossifying fibromas and exostoses. During its evolution, it can lead to one or more fractures, which are often the circumstances of its discovery. Imaging is a key factor in the positive diagnosis and the assessment of severity.
