Orthopaedic Clinic-General Hospital Kilkis, Thessaloniki (GREECE)<br />

A patient with calcaneus cyst is presented-rare location-the diagnostic and<br />

therapeutic approach are described and we review the literature.A male 37 years old<br />

came to our clinic because of ankle injury after a fall.The plain radiographs showed a<br />

multicameral cystic lesion of the left calcaneus which was demarcated by a thin<br />

border of sclerosis.CT imaging confirmed the radiographical findings and estimated<br />

the cystic dimensions .The patient underwent cystic curettage with bone<br />

grafts.Weight bearing was allowed 3 months after operation.At recent follow up 8<br />

months postoperatively radiographically the grafts have been completely<br />

incorporated and the patient has returned to his previous activities.<br />
