In the femur every type of cyst has been observed; in thetibia the cysts of varieties i and 2 predominate; there is butone example of the solid ostitis fibrosa, and in this instance(Von Brunns case) the femur was also involved; there isalso one example of variety 3, that is, the ostitis fibrosa withsmall cyst formation; here also the femur was involved. The benign bone cysts of varieties i to 5, therefore, arefound prominently in the humerus, femur, and tibia; moreoften they extend to the epiphyseal line, but there are cases inwhich the disease involves the centre of the shaft only. Colvin reports an X-ray of a benign
