Etiologies
- Fibrous dysplasia
- Eosinophilic granuloma, a form of Langerhans cell histiocytosis
- Enchondroma
- Giant cell tumour
- Non-ossifying fibroma
- Osteoblastoma
- Aneurysmal bone cyst
- Solitary bone cyst, typically well-defined and central, typically in proximal humerus and femur, and in patients less than 30 years
- Hyperparathyroidism (Brown tumour)
- Infection
- Chondroblastoma or chondromyxoid fibroma, cartilagenous tumours of the epiphysis
- Metastasis
- Myeloma
- Pseudocyst/normal variant, particularly in the greater tuberosity of the humerus, the calcaneus, and the radial tuberosity
