        | Core Tip | 
        We successfully operated on a 10-year-old girl with simple bone cysts (SBC), who presented with varus deformity, limb length discrepancy, and malunion resulting from a neglected pathological fracture. We proposed two potential causes for the humeral growth arrest and varus deformity in this patient: (1) direct disruption of the physis by fluid from the cyst itself; and (2) damage to the epiphysis due to recurrent pathological fractures associated with SBC. Presently, the literature lacks a comprehensive understanding of the acute correction of angular deformity in proximal humeral SBC. However, in this specific case, acute correction was considered an ideal option. |
