Abstrakt: Aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is a benign solitary bone lesion of unknown etiology. ABCs mainly occur in the long bones but only rarely in the bones of the feet. Few cases of ABC involving the calcaneum have been reported. We present a rare case of an ABC of the calcaneum in 18 year old Ethiopian female.
