Dentomaxillofac Radiol. 1999 Sep;28(5):324-6. doi: 10.1038/sj/dmfr/4600468.

Abstract

A rare case of an aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) involving the right coronoid process of the mandible in a 12-year-old girl is presented. The characteristic features with fluid-fluid levels within the lesion observed on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computed Tomography (CT) was helpful in the preoperative diagnosis.
