Abstract
A case of two secondary aneurysmal bone cysts arising in fibrous dysplasia during pregnancy is reported. Marked radiographic changes were seen in one lesion over a 3-week period. The development of these cysts during pregnancy strongly suggests that the hemodynamic and/or hormonal changes of pregnancy were responsible for their formation.
