Complete resection and immediate reconstruction with costochondral graft for recurrent aneurysmal bone cyst of the mandibular condyle.

Aneurysmal bone cyst is a non-neoplastic expansile lesion characterized by replacement with fibro-osseous tissue and blood-filled cavernous spaces. Involvement of the condyle is rare, and only 11 cases have been reported in English-language literature to date. Its common treatment modalities are lesion excision or condylar resection, but recurrence is high in patients treated with the former. The authors reported a 19-year-old female patient with swelling of the right preauricular region, who had a surgical curettage history in another hospital. The lesion was completely resected and the jaw was immediately reconstructed with costochondral graft with the help of SurgiCase software. The patient has been symptom-free for 6 months postoperatively.
