A member asked:
What is cyst in the anterior midline aspect of the proximal tibia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many possibilities: A unicameral bone cyst (called a simple bone cyst), is a fluid-filled cavity in the bone, lined by compressed fibrous tissue. It usually occurs in the long bones of a growing child, especially the humerus or femur, but also other bones. The webpage http://www.Radiologyassistant.Nl/en/494e15cbf0d8d shows many possible bone cysts or tumors, varying with the patient's age and the appearance on x-ray.
