Abstract
Aneurysmal bone cysts are benign expansile lesions that are rare in do mestic animals. In humans, they often have a characteristic radiograph ic appearance which allows their differentiation from neoplastic proce sses. The case report describes an aneurysmal bone cyst which radiogra phically resembled a malignant tumor in the lumbar spine of a dog.
