Resumen

El quiste óseo aneurismático (QOA) es una lesión muy infrecuente, de carácter benigno, no neoplásica que aparece típicamente en edades tempranas de la vida, usualmente antes de la 3ª década de vida, siendo excepcional en menores de 10 años.

Exponemos el diagnóstico y tratamiento de una niña de 8 años con un QOA del hueso temporal izquierdo, una localización poco frecuente. Aunque las características histológicas están bien definidas, su etiopatogenia aún no ha sido totalmente explicada. Actualmente la exéresis completa es el tratamiento de elección.
