Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The purpose of this paper is to review treatment strategies for simple bone cysts (SBCs). RECENT FINDINGS: Recent studies have focused on disrupting the wall of the cyst in combination with injectable bone substitutes. Bone substitutes are minimally invasive, provide an osteoconductive scaffold, and are relatively easy to use. Many of these studies, however, have methodological issues (uncontrolled, not randomized, unblinded outcome assessment, or short-term follow-up) and inconsistent radiographic outcomes making it difficult to determine the benefits of these newer treatment strategies. SUMMARY: Based on a single randomized clinical trial, steroids are the only evidence-based treatment for SBCs. Further basic science is needed to understand the pathoetiology and to develop future biologic solutions. Multimodal treatment strategies with opening of the medullary canal and disruption of the cyst wall, filling defect with a bone substitute, and possible biologic treatment of the cyst membrane may be the best strategy. When considering cysts of the lower extremity, structural support may be required in addition to treatment of the cyst.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
