The lesion may arise <jats:italic>de novo<\/jats:italic> (65%) or secondarily (35%) in pre-existing benign or malignant lesions (giant cell tumor, osteoblastoma, chondroblastoma, angioma, and others). The calcaneus is a rare localization for ABC, comprising only 1.6% of the cases. In this paper, we present a case of a female patient with a 3-month history of heel pain that got worse and was accompanied by swelling and difficulty in walking. The magnetic resonance images of the postero-lateral calcaneus showed a contrast-enhanced cystic lesion located in the medullary cavity; exophytic portion of the tumor extended into the soft tissue causing distinctive cortical thinning. Heterogeneous hyperintense septae formations and blood level components were also detected. After correlation with pathology results, the lesion was diagnosed as an ABC. Since an ABC of the calcaneus is a rarely seen phenomenon, we present the radiologic findings in this case and a review of the literature.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4103\/2156-7514.143732","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,10,31]],"date-time":"2014-10-31T02:30:26Z","timestamp":1414722626000},"page":"60","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.25259\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Aneurysmal Bone Cyst of the Calcaneus"],"prefix":"10.25259","volume":"4","author":[{"given":"Veysel","family":"Kaplano\u011flu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Ankara Ke\u00e7i\u00f6ren Training and Research Hospital, Ankara, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Deniz S\u00f6zmen","family":"Ciliz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Ankara Numune Training and Research Hospital, TR-06100, Ankara, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hatice","family":"Kaplano\u011flu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Diskapi Yildirim Beyazit Training and Research Hospital, Ankara, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Eda","family":"Elverici","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Ankara Numune Training and Research Hospital, TR-06100, Ankara, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"10894","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,10,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"10.4103\/2156-7514.143732\/ref-1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1171","DOI":"10.1503\/cmaj.101525","article-title":"\u201cSoap bubble\u201d in the calcaneus","volume":"183","author":"Kuna","year":"2011","journal-title":"CMAJ"},{"key":"10.4103\/2156-7514.143732\/ref-2","first-page":"295","article-title":"Costa originated giant aneurysmal bone cyst","volume":"32","author":"\u00c7obano\u011flu","year":"2010","journal-title":"Erciyes Med J"},{"key":"10.4103\/2156-7514.143732\/ref-3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"573","DOI":"10.2214\/ajr.164.3.7863874","article-title":"Aneurysmal bone cyst: Concept, controversy, clinical presentation, and imaging","volume":"164","author":"Kransdorf","year":"1995","journal-title":"AJR Am J Roentgenol"},{"key":"10.4103\/2156-7514.143732\/ref-4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"727","DOI":"10.1053\/j.jfas.2011.04.036","article-title":"Pathologic fracture of a calcaneal aneurysmal bone cyst","volume":"50","author":"Babazadeh","year":"2011","journal-title":"J Foot Ankle Surg"},{"key":"10.4103\/2156-7514.143732\/ref-5","first-page":"49","article-title":"Treatment of pelvic aneurysmal bone cysts in two children: Selective arterial embolization as an adjunct to curettage and bone grafting","volume":"13","author":"Yildirim","year":"2007","journal-title":"Diagn Interv Radiol"}],"container-title":["Journal of Clinical Imaging Science"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/clinicalimagingscience.org\/aneurysmal-bone-cyst-of-the-calcaneus\/","content-type":"text\/html","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/clinicalimagingscience.org\/aneurysmal-bone-cyst-of-the-calcaneus\/","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,8,30]],"date-time":"2019-08-30T01:12:12Z","timestamp":1567127532000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/clinicalimagingscience.org\/aneurysmal-bone-cyst-of-the-calcaneus\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2014,10,31]]},"references-count":5,"alternative-id":["10.4103\/2156-7514.143732"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4103\/2156-7514.143732","relation":{},"ISSN":["2156-7514"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2156-7514","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2014,10,31]]},"article-number":"60"}}
