Aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is a rare lesion that primarily affects young adults and children. The optimal treatment approach for ABC remains controversial and varies depending on the preferences of the medical team. While some advocate for surgery as the treatment of choice, others recommend a less invasive first-line option such as selective embolization. In this case report, we present the case of a 41-year-old female patient with an ABC in the right iliac bone who underwent surgical treatment following preoperative selective embolization. Additionally, we provide a literature review on the topic.
