Aneurysmal bone cysts are common in children. For its determination, various imaging studies are available, such as radiography and computerized axial tomography, which can collaborate in the differential diagnosis with other lesions. There are dissimilar therapeutic options, the use of autologous growth factors has been considered as an effective alternative. We present two patients seen in the Orthopedics service at "José Luis Miranda" University Pediatric Hospital in Villa Clara, with a clinical and imaging diagnosis of aneurysmal bone cyst who received treatment with mononuclear cell therapy having a good clinical and radiographic evolution. This technique is applicable in our environment since it does not require considerable material resources, which constitutes a strength for its implementation. X-rays allow us to recognize the evolution after treatment.

Palabras clave : bone cysts, aneurysmal/therapy; leukocytes, mononuclear, platelet-rich plasma.
