Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
An aneurysmal bone cyst is an uncommon benign primary bone tumor. Careful intralesional curettage through a wide cortical window in addition to cauterization with or without adjuvant therapy (phenol or hydrogen peroxide) and bone grafting or cementation is the preferred surgical treatment Adjuvant or primary radiation of an aneurysmal bone cyst rarely is used because of its association with malignant transformation of the lesion. Several cases of late malignant transformation of primary aneurysmal bone cysts without adjuvant radiation have been reported. We provide additional documentation of two primary aneurysmal bone cysts treated surgically with careful intralesional curettage through a wide cortical window and allograft bone grafting without adjuvant radiation. At 5.5 years and 12 years after treatment, a telangiectatic osteosarcoma and a fibroblastic osteosarcoma, respectively, were identified in the site of the original lesions. Not only should aneurysmal bone cysts be evaluated carefully through histologic examination at presentation, patients also should be counseled regarding possible recurrence and the need for routine followups, especially if symptoms change. © 2005 Lippincott Williams & Wilkins.
