Bone cysts

Bone cysts are found in different joints (Stifle, fetlock, coffin joint, elbow and shoulder joint, etc) and some of these do have connection with the joint. In some cases a surgical treatment is necessary in order to achieve full healing. Some are treated arthrosciopically and other are drilled out and filled up with a bone graft under Computer Tomographic (CT) guidance. These interventions are technically demanding. Another possible surgical technique is the insertion of a resorbable or non-resorbable screw through the cyst.
