Resumen

El quiste óseo aneurismático es una patología infrecuente que asienta generalmente en las metáfisis de huesos largos y vértebras. La afectación del seno esfenoidal es excepcional. Su origen se encuentra aún por definir, pero podemos considerarlos como un fenómeno vascular secundario a una lesión del hueso subyacente. Puede asociarse a otras enfermedades, presentes de forma metacrónica o sincrónica en distintas localizaciones de un mismo sujeto, como la displasia fibrosa poliostótica o los tumores de células gigantes. En este artículo se expone el caso de un paciente que presenta un quiste óseo aneurismático en el seno esfenoidal y alteración de la visión.

Palabras clave:
Quiste óseo aneurismático
Seno esfenoidal
Lesión ósea benigna

Other primary diseases that may be associated to aneurysmal bone cyst are polyostotic fibrous dysplasia and giant-cell tumors. We report the case of a patient with an aneurysmal bone cyst in the sphenoid sinus causing vision dysfunction.
