Department of Neurosurgery, Hadassah University Hospital, Jerusalem, Israel.

A 25 year old patient presented with a post-traumatic soft tissue swelling of the occiput, overlying an area of bone expansion and destruction. At operation an aneurysmal bone cyst was found. 11 years previously a similar parietal lesion had been found in conjunction with fibrous dysplasia. The differential diagnosis and treatment of this entity is discussed.

D005357	Fibrous Dysplasia of Bone	A disease of bone marked by thinning of the cortex by fibrous tissue containing bony spicules, producing pain, disability, and gradually increasing deformity. Only one bone may be involved (FIBROUS DYSPLASIA, MONOSTOTIC) or several (FIBROUS DYSPLASIA, POLYOSTOTIC).
