ABSTRACT

Systemic cystic angiomatosis (SCA) is a benign and poorly known condition, characterized by multiple cystic bone, visceral, and soft tissue lesions. Bone lesions, typically in long bones, are usually asymptomatic. Diagnosis is made by exclusion, using clinical, radiological, and non-specific histopathological findings. Treatment varies depending on the location of the bone cysts, while surgical resection is recommended for visceral and soft tissue lesions. This pathology can be mistaken for systemic metastatic activity.
