ABSTRACT
The solitary bone cyst is a tumor lesion that occurs predominantly in the metaphyses of long bones in children and adolescents. The current standard treatment is autologous bone graft, however, their rates of nonunion, morbidity site takes the graft and the limited amount that is counted and the non-presence of a tissue bank, encourage emergence of alternatives. Two patients, in whom hydroxyapatite HAP-200 was used as a support in the resection of benign bone pseudotumors, considering bone healing and rapid return to social life were presented. Clinical, radiographic and histopathological examinations were performed subsequently that allowed to confirm the diagnosis, and then make surgical performance or excision of the lesion and filling the cavity with hydroxyapatite. In all cases in which this type of therapy was performed a great effectiveness of the treatment was observed as an alternative therapy for bone graft with a boneimplantation or osseointegration response. Patients had excellent bone resolution, which confirmed the high biocompatibility and osteoconductive power of coral porous hydroxyapatite HAP-200.REFERENCES
