Aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is a benign but locally aggressive bone tumor occurring most commonly in the first 2 decades of life. The clavicle is a rare location for tumors, and ABCs of the clavicle have been sparsely described in the literature.

Aneurysmal Bone Cyst (ABC) is a benign bone tumour characterized by expansile and lytic nature which located in the intramedullary field and first named in 1942. Although benign, the ABC can be locally aggressive. Its expansile nature can cause pain, swelling, deformity, disruption of growth plates or joint surfaces. It constitutes 1% of all bone tumors, most commonly seen in children and adolescents. Almost all bones can be involved, but long bone metaphyses and vertebrae are the most common sites of involvement. Among all flat bones, the clavicle is one of the rare sites where tumors or  tumor-like  lesions  are  seen,  and  it  is  one  of  the  very  rare  settlements  in  terms  of  ABC.
