The treatment of solitary bone cyst due to local injections of steroid was reported by Scaglietti, et al. in 1973. They have been obtained excellent results. Recently we experienced two cases with solitary bone cyst which have been treated by Scaglietti's method.
The first case (eleven-year-old female) was solitary bone cyst of calcaneus. The second case (five-year-old male) was solitary bone cyst of radius. A few months later of the local injections, ossification was appeared in both cases.
We considered that Scaglietti's method was safety, useful, and effective treatment.
