摘 要:BACKGROUND Simple bone cysts(SBC)are benign tumor-like bone lesions typically identified in *** SBC may lead to growth disturbances or growth arrest,such cases are *** mechanisms behind these observations remain ***,research on the etiology of SBC remains inconclusive,and there has been no consensus on the appropriate timing and methodology for *** SUMMARY Here,we present our experience in the successful surgical management of a 10-year-old girl with SBC,who presented with a pathological fracture complicated by malunion of the displaced fracture,varus deformity,and limb length *** hypothesized two possible etiologies for the patient’s growth arrest and subsequent humerus varus deformity:(1)Direct disruption of the physis by fluid from the cyst itself;and(2)damage to the epiphysis due to repetitive pathological fractures associated with *** addressing this case,surgical intervention was undertaken to correct the proximal humerus varus *** approach offered the advantages of simultaneously correcting angular abnormalities,achieving mild limb lengthening,providing definitive SBC treatment,and reducing the overall treatment *** As per current literature,acute correction of acute angular deformity in proximal humeral SBC is not well ***,in this specific case,acute correction was considered an optimal solution.
